These essays should be treated as sparks to the kindling of thinking, as laying the foundations for more rigorous readings and theorizations.

SynopsisMusic communicates where words fail, and music therapy has been proven to connect with those who were thought to be unreachable, making it an ideal medium for working with those who have suffered psychological trauma. Music, Music Therapy and Trauma addresses the need for an exploration of current thinking on music and trauma. With chapters written by many of today's leading specialists in this area, music and trauma is approached from a wide range of perspectives, with contributions on: neurology of trauma and music; music and trauma in general; social and cultural perspectives on trauma; contextualising contemporary classical music and conflict; music and trauma in areas where there is war, community unrest and violence (Northern Ireland, Bosnia-Herzegovina, South Africa); music, trauma and early development.
