An enlightening book, You Bring Out the Music in Me, explores how
music motivates, enriches, touches, relaxes, and energizes the
elderly in nursing homes. Practicing music therapists explain how
music "speaks" to all of us, regardless of our language, culture,
or abilities and how it can be used with groups and individuals in
nursing homes to encourage relaxation and expression of feeling and
increase socialization. The chapters encompass both music therapy
practice in gerontology as well as practical ideals and suggestions
for activities directors who want to use music in their nursing
home activities programs. This readable book includes a history of
music therapy, the need for research in the field, discussions of
music in groups and music with individuals, and a useful resource
list of music materials.
