Music And Soulmaking : Toward a New Theory of Music Therapy, Hardcover by Crowe, Barbara J., ISBN 0810851431, ISBN-13 9780810851436, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Bringing in aspects of disciplines as diverse as neuroscience, sociology, acoustics, education, and complexity science, Crowe (director of music therapy, Arizona State U.) simultaneously seeks to explain why music therapy is effective and to formulate a philosophy of music therapy. She rejects a completely empirical approach, preferring to conceptualize her philosophy as "music and soulmaking," wherein soul "is our experience of ourselves, and, as such it is dynamic, malleable, and ever growing and changing" and music "is a fundamental, holistic experience that impacts functioning in all areas--body, mind, emotion, and spirit." She offers descriptions of how music impacts each of these areas, followed by a presentation of her new model for music and healing (or "soulmaking").
