Effect of Musical Auditory Training on Subjects With Tinnitus Disorder

Auditory training with a focus on musicality. The skills trained will be: figure-ground for instrumental sounds, sequential figure-ground, directed listening, duration of sounds, frequency of sounds, rhythm (temporal structuring), auditory closure and audiovisual memory, with a focus on temporal processing, working memory and attention selective on an increasing scale of difficulty. The frequency ranges of instrumental sounds are from 200 to 4000 Hz, composed of the following instruments: guitar, vibraphone, piano, flute and drum.

"This placebo approach will be to demonstrate the influence of musical exposure without exercises with structuring auditory skills and compare with the TAM group.~The song Sonata for two pianos in D major, K448, by Mozart, will be used. The films selected were: Cirque Du Soleil, entitled The Journey of Man; Chaplin collection with the following films: Modern Times, The Great Dictator, In Search of Gold and Footlights. The choice of the order of the films will be random, as proposed by Freire (2009)."
