Through a series of vivid case studies, Music and Creativity in
Healthcare Settings: Does Music Matter? documents the ways in which
music brings humanity to sterile healthcare spaces, and its
significance for people dealing with major illness. It also
considers the notion of the arts as a vessel to explore
humanitarian questions surrounding serious illness, namely what it
is to be human. Overarching themes include: taking control;
security and safety; listening; the normalization of the
environment; being an individual; expressing emotion; transcendence
and hope and expressing the inexpressible. With an emphasis on
service user narratives, chapters are enriched with examples of
good practice using music in healthcare. Furthermore, a focus on
aesthetic deprivation contributes to debates on the intrinsic and
instrumental value of music and the arts in modern society. This
concise study will be a valuable source of inspiration for care
givers and service users in the health sector; it will also appeal
to scholars and researchers in the areas of Music medicine and
music Therapy, and the Medical Humanities.
