Description

This book comprehensively reviews wide-ranging research describing the uses of music listening for health and wellbeing outcomes. Drawing on the work of diverse professionals from around the globe, the authors provide engaging illustrations of using music with people in practice, combined with recommendations from their many years of applied practice in hospitals, schools, community organisations, and universities as music therapists, researchers and educators. Knowledge has been gathered into accessible chapters so that professionals can identify their own area of interest and go directly to it. This includes music listening for flourishing during difficult times, during life transitions, for stress in everyday life, problematic music listening, music listening for mental ill health and trauma, in acute hospital settings, for neurocognitive impairment, in rehabilitation and special education, for optimising performance, and in groups. A book for professionals who want to be informed by the latest research and expertise when using music listening in their work.
