Download or read book Handbook of Music and Emotion Theory Research Applications written by Patrik N. Juslin and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-03-17 with total page 992 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music's ability to express and arouse emotions is a mystery that has fascinated both experts and laymen at least since ancient Greece. The predecessor to this book 'Music and Emotion' (OUP, 2001) was critically and commercially successful and stimulated much further work in this area. In the years since publication of that book, empirical research in this area has blossomed, and the successor to 'Music and Emotion' reflects the considerable activity in this area. The Handbook of Music and Emotion offers an 'up-to-date' account of this vibrant domain. It provides comprehensive coverage of the many approaches that may be said to define the field of music and emotion, in all its breadth and depth. The first section offers multi-disciplinary perspectives on musical emotions from philosophy, musicology, psychology, neurobiology, anthropology, and sociology. The second section features methodologically-oriented chapters on the measurement of emotions via different channels (e.g., self report, psychophysiology, neuroimaging). Sections three and four address how emotion enters into different aspects of musical behavior, both the making of music and its consumption. Section five covers developmental, personality, and social factors. Section six describes the most important applications involving the relationship between music and emotion. In a final commentary, the editors comment on the history of the field, summarize the current state of affairs, as well as propose future directions for the field. The only book of its kind, The Handbook of Music and Emotion will fascinate music psychologists, musicologists, music educators, philosophers, and others with an interest in music and emotion (e.g., in marketing, health, engineering, film, and the game industry). It will be a valuable resource for established researchers in the field, a developmental aid for early-career researchers and postgraduate research students, and a compendium to assist students at various levels. In addition, as with its predecessor, it will also attract interest from practising musicians and lay readers fascinated by music and emotion.
Download or read book Music Health and Wellbeing written by Raymond MacDonald and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-02-09 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great saxophonist Charlie Parker once proclaimed "if you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn". This quote has often been used to explain the hedonistic lifestyle of many jazz greats; however, but it also signals the reciprocal and inextricable relationship between music and wider social, cultural and psychological variables. This link is complex and multifaceted and is undoubtedly a central component of why music has been implicated as a therapeutic agent in vast swathes of contemporary research studies. Music is always about more than just acoustic events or notes on a page. Music has a universal and timeless potential to influence how we feel. Yet, only recently, have researchers begun to explore and understand the positive effects that music can have on our wellbeing - across a range of cultures and musical genres. This book brings together research from music psychology, therapy, public health, and medicine, to explore the relationship between music, health and wellbeing. It presents a range of chapters from internationally recognised experts, resulting in a comprehensive, multidisciplinary, and pluralistic account of recent advances and applications in both clinical and non-clinical practice and research. Some of the questions explored include: what is the nature of the scientific evidence to support the relationship between music, health and wellbeing? What are the current views from different disciplines on empirical observations and methodological issues concerning the effects of musical interventions on health-related processes? What are the mechanisms which drive these effects and how can they be utilised for building robust theoretical frameworks for future work? For the first time, research from disciplines including neuroscience of music, music therapy, psychophysiology and epidemiology of music, community music and music education is synthesised and presented together to further our understanding of music and health in one single volume, ensuring that closely related strands of research in different disciplines are brought together into a authoritative, comprehensive and robust collection of chapters. This book is a timely and unique response to an explosion of interest in the relationship between music, health, and wellbeing and will be invaluable resources for students, administrators and researchers in the humanities, social and medical sciences alike.

Download or read book Music Therapy and Pediatric Pain written by Joanne Loewy and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music Therapy & Pediatric Pain includes the writing of 21 clinicians and researchers committed to developing the area of music therapy and pediatric pain. Medical music therapy, based on a complete mind-body model, unifies numerous orientations and substantiates the premise that medical aspects of practice can be achieved via music therapy, as in chanting to sedate a child rather than providing a pharmacological agent. In addition, medical aspects of practice can be achieved through the incorporation of psychotherapeutic principles into traditional medical practice, such as entraining music to help a failure-to-thrive infant feed or bonding integrative lullabies used to alleviate the inherent stress that can develop between parent and child during hospitalization. Each of the authors contributes a perspective that illuminates the scope of practice in the medical music therapy model including process oriented approaches, multidisciplinary approaches, the ethics of pain control in infants and children, music therapy practice in pediatric music therapy settings, theory and research on music therapy and pediatric pain, techniques such as entrainment, clinical music improvisation, imagery, music vibration, and the rhythmic language of health and disease, applications with particular populations such as cancer, sickle cell and surgical procedures and a bibliography. This introductory text provides the reader with some guidelines that enhance the assessment and treatment of pediatric pain through a variety of music therapy practices.
