- Synopsis
-
Improvisational Methods of Music Therapy is the second in a series of textbooks addressing each of the four music therapy methods employed in a variety of clinical contexts. Students and professionals alike will gain foundational knowledge about Clinical Music Improvisation (CMI) and its many variations as pertinent to individual, dyadic, and group improvisation.
This book is specifically intended as a general roadmap for the design and implementation of therapeutically relevant, effective, and individualized improvisation experiences applicable to a wide range of clinical profiles and interpersonal and cultural contexts. As such, Improvisational Methods of Music Therapy addresses prerequisites, risks, contraindications, inherent affordances, and challenges related to CMI, with overarching considerations and procedural steps for Instrumental, Vocal, and Body Improvisation. Attention is given to the use of CMI toward both client achievement of predetermined and measurable therapeutic objectives (i.e., outcome-oriented practice) and client identification and exploration of needs as they manifest in the musicing process (i.e., experience-oriented practice). Hypothetical case illustrations and summaries of actual clinical cases highlight particular CMI variations and procedures.
