Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
This session will use contrasting examples of clinical work in different settings to consider the complex understanding of neurological, physiological, and psychotherapeutic principles which inform music therapy. Despite the increasing quantitative evidence of clinical efficacy, music therapy remains a small and somewhat misunderstood profession. Through asking the questions ‘What do we hear? What do we feel? What do we know?’ we will examine a little of the intimate clinical interactions between client and music therapist and seek to understand more about the interweaving of musical, intellectual, and emotional underpinning required by music therapists in order to ensure effective clinical interventions.
