Yet I also have a desire to serve the community as well as an interest in music that has spanned nearly 40 years of participation in bands and orchestras. For many months, I questioned how I could use music to serve in more personal fashion than as a member of a larger group. Fortunately, while browsing in a music store, I discovered The Healing Musician by Stella Benson, which describes the emerging field of therapeutic or “healing” music. Around the same time, I noticed an ad in Early Music America for the Music for Healing and Transition Program (MHTP).en-USIndiana Library FederationLibrary science -- Societies, etc.Music therapyAlternative medicineThe Healing Power of Music: An Overview and Resources Guide for Complementary and Alternative Medicine ModalitiesArticle
