Abstract: Music used in connection with health and wellness is not a new concept. Music therapy is one discipline that uses music and has developed at various speeds internationally. Since the day I first learned about music therapy I have been advocating further understanding of the discipline, and for its inclusion in multiple contexts. I situate myself in the paper with the start of my own journey into music therapy and provide a short personal reflective overview of three overarching issues I see impacting education, training, and clinical practice of music therapy and its continued development. The World Federation of Music Therapy and the International Association for Music and Medicine will be briefly described with respect to their impact as two large international organizations seeking to advance music therapy and music medicine in healthcare. The essay is offered as an opportunity for educators, practitioners, and researchers to consider and reflect on the factors they see impacting our profession to work towards advancing music therapy and actioning the challenges facing the discipline. Some action steps are offered such as ensuring ethical practice, continuing advocacy efforts, increasing opportunities and avenues of knowledge translation, and developing collaborations. It is hoped that reflecting on these experiences will further dialogue to advance different, non-Western perspectives of music therapy, and to learn how to honor multiple ways of supporting therapeutic music and healing experiences without centering Western approaches or perspectives.

Abstract: Our bodies as instruments include systems which co-regulate, as integrative mechanisms. The cardiac and respiratory systems are inter-dependent, and with music, one of these systems can directly have an impact upon the other. The wind of the body integrates how direct oxygen can maintain our blood flow. Particularly in the playing of live music, such activity coordinates, synchronizes and ultimately influences how we think and feel. Neurologic systems are meant to integrate and music can make such amalgamation stronger-leading toward increased capacity for experiences of functional flow. The IAMM (International Association for Music and Medicine) emblem reflects the integrative mission, and the words “I am” works well and implies a useful reminder for us to think about how music and medicine is inclusive of sounds and systems that we are venturing to know better. Specifically, amongst our unified vision, which began in 2008, was the idea that integration of our research and practice not only makes us more deeply and broadly informed, but additionally can enhance the scope of practice for practitioners and clinicians.

Abstract: MusicMedicine describes the use of medicofunctional music, today called music-based interventions, promoting therapeutic benefits in medical settings based on scientific evidence. In prevention, therapy, rehabilitation, health promotion, performance enhancement, behavioral management and many other settings its benefits may at the same time contribute to cost containment. Established standards in education, research, and application secure reliability, validity and reproducibility of methods, concepts, results and therapeutic effects. Such standards include definition of intervening variables such as the musical stimuli used, as well as contributing or interfering variables, such as specific clinical settings or sociocultural background. Wherever possible, studies and therapeutic regimes should include music therapists. Traditionally, educated doctors know much about medicine, and might be fond of music, but usually have no music therapeutic expertise. At the same time, research in MusicMedicine demands interdisciplinary and multimodal approaches using mixed-methods design with thorough biostatistical design and analysis. Since 1982, MusicMedicine as inaugurated by the International Society for Music in Medicine ISMM e.V. has bridged together music therapy and traditional medical science orientations, leading towards a solid partnership that is influencing today’s practice of integrative medicine. Publications of studies about music-based medical interventions should preferably include an audio-file of the music used in the conducted session.

Abstract: The potential to make and to enjoy music is genetically enrooted in humans and is an important resource of joy and quality of live for children and adolescents. Music making induces short-term and long-term neuroplastic adaptations in cortical and subcortical structures. Normally developing children who learn to play a musical instrument show better auditory pattern recognition and auditory memory. Furthermore sensorimotor, intellectual, and emotional maturation are accelerated. These effects can also be used beneficially through music interventions in children and adolescents suffering from neurodevelopmental disorders, from hearing disorders, or from cerebral palsy. Children with autism spectrum disorders learn better self-control and attention management through musical interventions and are supported in contact and communication skills. For children with cochlear implants, musical training can improve long-term outcomes not only in music perception but also in speech perception. Finally, learning a musical instrument and the associated sensorimotor-auditory and emotional integration may help children with infantile cerebral palsy improve fine motor skills but also emotional stability. Due to the numerous positive results (albeit frequently in studies with small numbers and lower quality), we advocate the increased use of qualified music intervention in child neurology and its accompanying scientific evaluation.

Abstract: Working with children and adolescents plays an important part in music therapy as a profession – not least because music is of great developmental psychological significance in childhood and adolescence. This article provides an introductury overview of music therapy practice and research in childhood and adolescence. Music therapy is a safe and and generally well-accepted intervention. Research findings show that the highest quality of evidence for positive effects of music therapy has been found in autism spectrum and neonatal care. Music therapy with children and adolescents can act as an effective non-pharmacological alternative and complement to other disease-specific therapies.

Abstract: Abstract Working with music therapy within a psychotherapeutic understanding in psychiatry has a tradition of over fifty years. An overview of music therapy for adults in a psychiatric context and essential results of effect and process research are presented. Psychodynamic music therapy with its free musical improvisation creates a connection between patient and therapist through which a complex relationship can become audible. Effectiveness studies in the psychiatric context show satisfactory to good results. From the perspective of psychiatric patients on music therapy, the shared musical experience and the positive influence on mood are described as strengths. On the one hand, process research emphasises the potential of improvisation for musical attunement and synchronisation; on the other hand, the careful dosage of closeness and distance in shaping relationships must be observed. The recognition that relationships are characterised by attunement and also by inevitable mismatch has gained central importance in recent years. Difficulties, such as misattunement that arise within the therapeutic relationship are not seen as an obstacle, but on the contrary, as an opportunity for change. The concept of Alliance Rupture and Repair is related to music therapy, including a case study. Finally, future fields of research are described.

Abstract: During medical surgeries, music is often played without further sensibility for the type of music. Commonly the decision of the music selection lies solely with the operating surgeon. Few studies address the musical needs of healthcare workers during surgery. A better understanding of these needs could help to enrich the working environment of the operating theatre (OT) with music, thus improving the perioperative processes of treatment as well as the team dynamics of the treatment staff. In this article, we will present results and discuss two approaches regarding music and sound in the OT. At first, current results are presented in which clinical treatment staff (N=119) were asked about their musical needs in the OT. Then, coming from the perspective of musical soundscape intervention (MSI), the Healing Soundscape Project is presented with its interdisciplinary framework, practical implementation, and previous research. Both perspectives will be discussed to further develop a musical soundscape intervention in the OT.
