Music streaming service Qobuz and hi-fi tech maker iFi have teamed up for World Alzheimer's Month with a competition.
Qobuz and hi-fi brand iFi are inviting you to create a playlist filled with songs that evoke special memories for World Alzheimer's Month. The competition aims to highlight the connection between music and memory retention in Alzheimer's patients. As September is World Alzheimer's Month, this contest runs throughout the month.
Remembering personal moments or periods in life is one of the primary reasons why people create playlists. For the competition, you'll submit a playlist on Qobuz's high-resolution streaming platform, accompanied by a brief story or description explaining its significance to you. The prize for the winner is the iFi iDSD GR 2 DAC, a digital-to-analog converter that can significantly enhance your listening experience, valued at $529 / £529 / AU$849.
Music has shown to help preserve memory in Alzheimer's patients, according to a study published in the National Library of Medicine. This makes the connection between music and memory particularly significant for those living with the disease. The iFi iDSD GR 2 DAC has received a perfect 5-star review for its exceptional sound quality and user-friendly interface.
Create your playlist, share your story, and enter the competition to win this fantastic prize. Delving into old albums and tracks that take you back to a specific moment can be a cathartic and profound experience, further emphasizing the powerful impact of music on memory and emotions.
