MANY FACES of MUSIC THERAPY
6 th European Music Therapy Congress

 

SYMPOSIA

In addition to paper sessions we will include symposia where carefully selected topical themes will get specific attention.

The topics of the pre-arranged symposia are:

• Evidence-based approaches
• Guitar in music therapy
• Music technology/computer-aided music therapy
• Music therapy and gender
• Phenomenology and hermeneutics
• Student symposium

Evidence based music therapy:
Evidence based music therapy, is more than topical because of its general importance on the whole field of health service throughout Europe.
There is a lot of work when fitting music therapy to the evidence based standards, especially when taking into consideration that music therapy is something where many of the researchers would like to adopt more qualitative than quantitative research strategy. This does not mean that there is no way for qualitative methods anymore. There is, but music therapists have to put more attention to evidence based approach in order to attach the profession more officially to the health system.

Guitar in music therapy:
The guitar is an instrument used by many people wishing to play popular music. It suits a range of differing musical abilities and is versatile in accompanying songs. The intention of this symposium is to showcase the use of the guitar in a variety of clinical settings using various playing styles.

Music technology/computer-aided music therapy:
Modern technology has brought plenty of new possibilities for music therapy. For instance, it has made musical expression possible even for those who are most severely disabled.
This symposium, stressing the role of modern technology, intends to share information, to share experience, to present the latest applications, and finally, to educate music therapists to adopt new technology as well as to reduce the biases towards it.

Phenomenology and Hermeneutics:
To respect an established European tradition, one of the symposia is called "Phenomenology and Hermeneutics". It is important to maintain and develop reflective and interpretive approaches that have always had an important role within music therapy. By including this symposium in the congress, we want to stress the importance of various theoretical frameworks and to reiterate the importance of traditional European discourses of thinking and research music therapy. Although we have to respond to demands from society to answer new requests, we must also respect, maintain, develop and retain our old traditions lines of thought; otherwise we are in danger of losing our roots and losing what history has to give us.

Music therapy and gender:
All around Europe, gender issues have been in the forefront of recent discussions. It is true also within music therapy, where primarily female music therapy researchers have paid attention to this topic. The discussion, and the research on the topic are important.
Those, who are helping people (therapists) must be aware about the gender issues and tend to contribute to the reduction of unbalance whenever possible by means of their clinical work as well in their research activities.

Student symposium:
A new idea is to include a specific student symposium in the congress. In previous congresses, not much attention has been paid to students and their needs. Having listened to students, we will attempt to redress that lack. Students are very active and have established a new student organization under the head organization (European Music Therapy Confederation) and we want to place a special emphasis on to this issue. Students are the music therapists of tomorrow and we want to give them the opportunity to hear the best research and practice while they are still young in their careers.
You are welcome to suggest your own symposia themes and arrange the necessary speakers. See Instructions for presentations above.
