Book Synopsis Defining Music Therapy by : Kenneth E. Bruscia
Download or read book Defining Music Therapy written by Kenneth E. Bruscia and published by Barcelona Publishers(NH). This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third edition of this book is the culmination of a 25 year project aimed at conceptualizing music therapy in a critically inclusive and integrative way. To be critically inclusive, the definition must provide an umbrella that embraces all professional practices and concepts that have been deemed viable in the refereed literature, while also excluding those concepts and practices: that do not rely on music; that occur outside of a professional therapist-client relationship; and that are not concerned with addressing the client's health. To be integrative, the definition must offer myriad options for using music to address the client's health concerns--as indicated by client need rather than therapist orientation.The resulting definition is a working and provisional one, based on over 100 existing definitions. It has been co-constructed by the author (who is situated in American music therapy), experienced colleagues, and authors and associations around the world who have crafted their own definition of music therapy. Its relevance is clearly situated with Western cultures that use the English language for scholarly purposes.
Book Synopsis Defining Music Therapy by : Kenneth E. Bruscia
Download or read book Defining Music Therapy written by Kenneth E. Bruscia and published by Barcelona Publishers(NH). This book was released on 1989 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music and therapy are both difficult to define, and when fused together into a single discipline, many complications arise. This book takes an in-depth look at the unique problems of defining music within a therapeutic context, and defining therapy within a musical context. Over 40 definitions of music therapy am examined and compared. A new definition is offered to address the myriad issues raised, and to embrace the diversity of clinical practice. Each segment of the definition is discussed, and in the process, boundaries are suggested for what music therapy is and what it is not. In the final chapters, eleven areas of clinical practice are identified, and each area is further differentiated by four levels of treatment. Specific examples are given of each area and level, and implications are drawn.

Book Synopsis The Study of Music Therapy: Current Issues and Concepts by : Kenneth S. Aigen
Download or read book The Study of Music Therapy: Current Issues and Concepts written by Kenneth S. Aigen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the issues in music therapy that are central to understanding it in its scholarly dimensions, how it is evolving, and how it connects to related academic disciplines. It draws on a multi-disciplinary approach to look at the defining issues of music therapy as a scholarly discipline, rather than as an area of clinical practice. It is the single best resource for scholars interested in music therapy because it focuses on the areas that tend to be of greatest interest to them, such as issues of definition, theory, and the function of social context, but also does not assume detailed prior knowledge of the subject. Some of the topics discussed include defining the nature of music therapy, its relation to current and historical uses of music in human well-being, and considerations on what makes music therapy work. Contemporary thinking on the role of neurological theory, early interaction theory, and evolutionary considerations in music therapy theory are also reviewed. Within each of these areas, the author presents an overview of the development of thinking, discusses contrasting positions, and offers a personalized synthesis of the issue. The Study of Music Therapy is the only book in music therapy that gathers all the major issues currently debated in the field, providing a critical overview of the predominance of opinions on these issues.

Book excerpt: Music, whether performed or heard, has been seen as therapeutic in the history of many cultures. How have its therapeutic properties been conceptualized and explained? Which cultures have used music therapy? What were their aims and techniques, and how much continuity is there between ancient, medieval and modern practice? These are the questions addressed by the essays in this volume.

Chapters covering the Judaic, Islamic, Indian and South-East Asian traditions add global, comparative perspectives.
