Download or read book Musical Healing in Cultural Contexts written by Penelope Gouk and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do people use music to heal themselves and others? Are the healing powers of music universal or culturally specific? The essays in this volume address these two central questions as to music‘s potential as a therapeutic source. The contributors approach the study of music healing from social, cultural and historical backgrounds, and in so doing provide perspectives on the subject which complement the wealth of existing literature by practitioners. The forms of music therapy explored in the book exemplify the well-being that can be experienced as a result of participating in any type of musical or artistic performance. Case studies include examples from the Bolivian Andes, Africa and Western Europe, as well as an assessment of the role of Islamic traditions in Western practices. These case studies introduce some new, and possibly unfamiliar models of musical healing to music therapists, ethnomusicologists and anthropologists. The book contributes to our understanding of the transformative and healing roles that music plays in different societies, and so enables us better to understand the important part music contributes to our own cultures.
Download or read book Music and Disorders of Consciousness Emerging Research Practice and Theory written by Wendy L. Magee and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music processing in severely brain-injured patients with disorders of consciousness has been an emergent field of interest for over 30 years, spanning the disciplines of neuroscience, medicine, the arts and humanities. Disorders of consciousness (DOC) is an umbrella term that encompasses patients who present with disorders across a continuum of consciousness including people who are in a coma, in vegetative state (VS)/have unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS), and in minimally conscious state (MCS). Technological developments in recent years, resulting in improvements in medical care and technologies, have increased DOC population numbers, the means for investigating DOC, and the range of clinical and therapeutic interventions under validation. In neuroimaging and behavioural studies, the auditory modality has been shown to be the most sensitive in diagnosing awareness in this complex population. As misdiagnosis remains a major problem in DOC, exploring auditory responsiveness and processing in DOC is, therefore, of central importance to improve therapeutic interventions and medical technologies in DOC. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the role of music as a potential treatment and medium for diagnosis with patients with DOC, from the perspectives of research, clinical practice and theory. As there are almost no treatment options, such a non-invasive method could constitute a promising strategy to stimulate brain plasticity and to improve consciousness recovery. It is therefore an ideal time to draw together specialists from diverse disciplines and interests to share the latest methods, opinions, and research on this topic in order to identify research priorities and progress inquiry in a coordinated way. This Research Topic aimed to bring together specialists from diverse disciplines involved in using and researching music with DOC populations or who have an interest in theoretical development on this topic. Specialists from the following disciplines participated in this special issue: neuroscience; medicine; music therapy; clinical psychology; neuromusicology; and cognitive neuroscience.

Book excerpt: Table of Contents Introduction Different types of Healing Music Music Therapy – My Experiences Secrets of Traditional Chants Prenatal Influence of Music on Babies Exorcism through Music and Rhythm Even Simple Words Hold the Power… Different Ragas for Different Ailments Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction Music relaxes, elevates, soothes, inspires and delights. But most of us do not know that music can also heal, and when I got interested in this traditional method of healing one spiritually, mentally and emotionally through music, I began by researching in ancient musical therapy processes all over the world. I was astonished to hear and learn that every civilization had its own music therapy process, for healing. It came in the form of chants, prayers, and morning dawned to the music of the birds chirping on the trees, and the bees humming on the flowers. If you were relaxed enough to lie down under a tree, and just hear the sloughing of the wind, making a rustling sound through the trees, you would find yourself feeling sleepy, relaxing, and then calming down tranquilly. This book is going to give you a glimpse of traditions in Asia, along with traditional information of music therapy, and because I did not research in Chinese, Thai, Japanese or other Eastern music therapy, you are going to find references to ragas, slokas, pertaining to Indian music, and also Indian mythology.

Download or read book Music Therapy written by Kevin Thorley and published by Dedona Publishing. This book was released on with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music has been a part of human culture since the dawn of time. Its rhythms, melodies, and harmonies have not only served as a form of artistic expression but have also played a vital role in rituals, ceremonies, and healing practices across different cultures. This chapter provides an overview of music therapy as a clinical and evidence-based practice, exploring its origins, fundamental principles, and the diverse ways in which it benefits individuals in both physical and mental health settings. Music therapy's roots can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where music was used as a tool for healing and communication. In Greek and Roman cultures, philosophers like Pythagoras and Plato discussed the healing power of music and its influence on emotions and the body. Indigenous cultures worldwide have long used music, drumming, and chanting as part of their spiritual and healing traditions, recognizing its ability to alter states of consciousness and promote well-being. The modern field of music therapy emerged in the mid-20th century, following World War II. During this time, musicians began to visit hospitals to play for soldiers suffering from physical and emotional trauma. Observing the profound effects that music had on the soldiers’ recovery, doctors and nurses started to incorporate music into their treatment plans. The positive impact on patients led to the formalization of music therapy as a profession, with the first academic programs and certification processes being established in the 1950s and 1960s.

Download or read book Musicophilia written by Oliver Sacks and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-02-05 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What goes on in human beings when they make or listen to music? What is it about music, what gives it such peculiar power over us, power delectable and beneficent for the most part, but also capable of uncontrollable and sometimes destructive force? Music has no concepts, it lacks images; it has no power of representation, it has no relation to the world. And yet it is evident in all of us–we tap our feet, we keep time, hum, sing, conduct music, mirror the melodic contours and feelings of what we hear in our movements and expressions. In this book, Oliver Sacks explores the power music wields over us–a power that sometimes we control and at other times don’t. He explores, in his inimitable fashion, how it can provide access to otherwise unreachable emotional states, how it can revivify neurological avenues that have been frozen, evoke memories of earlier, lost events or states or bring those with neurological disorders back to a time when the world was much richer. This is a book that explores, like no other, the myriad dimensions of our experience of and with music.
