Music at the Edge: The Music Therapy Experiences of a Musician with AIDS Books
Product Description
Through the words of the therapist and the music of the patient, BMusic at the Edge allows the reader to experience a complete music therapy journey. Francis, a trained musician who was facing death from AIDS, challenges Colin Lee, to help him clarify his feelings about living, and dying. In doing so, Francis helped Lee to clarify some of Lee’s own feelings about this particularly demanding form of therapeutic work and to question the framework of the therapeutic relationship in palliative care. The CD is a central part of the book, allowing readers to hear extracts from Frances’ improvisations which illuminate the text and provide the musical “voice” of the patient. Transcribed music allows all those able to read music to follow and play Francis’ improvisations. This deeply tender book offers an unique opportunity to know how the transcendent power of music can enable expression of awkward feelings more accurately than words.
