Bachelor Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Pedagogy - Media Pedagogy, grade: 2:1, , course: BA Honours Applied Music, language: English, abstract: Investigation into the role of improvisation within the discipline of music therapy is achieved through academic research, interviews with performers and music therapy clinicians, and the examination of a case study of a seven year old boy with multiple impairments forms the basis of this study. Musical examples based upon this research are offered as working models where the application of improvisation can be applied. Contrasting the use of improvisation within performance, and the benefits of creative music within the health care environment, with the application of music therapy and its particular aims and goals is used in defining what music therapy is. An investigation into the therapeutic application of music within the therapy environment, and psycho-dynamic principles, are used to clarify music therapy’s position within the health care system. Examples of how improvisation can be applied are offered, detailing how improvisation can be used to develop an atmosphere of trust and exploration, leading to and developing an interpersonal relationship between client and clinician. Investigating these clearly shows that the needs of the client are central to this relationship. Music therapy is the analytically informed, and evidence based use of music within the therapeutic environment to produce clinical goals, and clinical aims, that are centered on the needs of the client. This investigative research fully supports this premise.

Clinical Improvisation Techniques in Music Therapy: A Guide for Students, Clinicians and Educators provides a clear and systematic approach to understanding and applying improvisational techniques. It is inspired by the taxonomy of clinical improvisation techniques as described by Kenneth Bruscia in his book, Improvisational Models of Music Therapy. Based on years of their own experimenting with the teaching of improvisation, the authors have evolved a particular developmental sequence for introducing basic techniques of improvising and applying them through role-play exercises that have been sensitively designed to bring out one’s innate musicality and one’s empathic regard. Part One provides an introduction to the techniques. Part Two focuses on how to apply the techniques with clinical intent in order to meet the diverse needs of a client, individually or in the context of a group. This section also addresses the need to enrich one’s own musicianship by providing musical resources, relevant references and guidelines for working with client’s playing. This “hands-on” guide fulfills the need for a clear process-oriented approach to mastering clinical improvisation techniques, and in a style that can be understood not only by music therapy students, clinicians and educators but also by health care administrators and providers alike.

"With a focus on music, this book outlines what improvisation is and why it is an important creative and social activity. Drawing on the emerging psychological literature in this area, as well as evidence from authors' research with musicians, this text outlines innovative ideas on what defines improvisation and the psychological, creative and social processes involved. It explores the role of specialist skills, the importance of musical identities and the nature of understanding in improvised interaction and between improvisers. It discusses how we develop as improvisers and the role of improvisation within therapeutic applications of music. Each chapter proceeds from discussion of an illustrative instance of musical improvisation. Providing fresh and provocative insights for anyone interested in playing, studying, teaching or listening to improvised music, the authors offer suggestions for approaching this practice in new ways at any level, and identify potential developments in cross-disciplinary improvising. Asserting that everyone can and should improvise, the book provides a resource for courses teaching improvisation in contemporary practice, and has strong relevance for those applying musical improvisation in community and therapeutic contexts. The book deals with such questions as: What constitutes improvisation? Do all forms of improvisation represent the same thing? Faced with myriad possibilities, how do improvisers decide what to play? How does an improviser in a group know what the others will do? How might improvisation influence our wellbeing? In response to such questions, a definition of improvisation based on its unique behavioural features is set out as an exciting context for psychological investigation"--

A general theory on the role of analogy in music therapy, explaining how a person can use music to "sound" his or her self, and how the self interacts with the environment. The values of analogy are examined in terms of the differences between representing human experience through language versus music. The author demonstrates how the concept of analogy can be used in formulating treatment goals and interventions, evaluating the effectiveness of treatment, and developing rationales about treatment and effectiveness. Qualitative research is advocated.
