The great saxophonist Charlie Parker once proclaimed "e;if you don't live it, it        won't come out of your horn"e;. This quote has often been used to explain the        hedonistic lifestyle of many jazz greats; however, but it also signals the        reciprocal and inextricable relationship between music and wider social, cultural        and psychological variables. This link is complex and multifaceted and is        undoubtedly a central component of why music has been implicated as a therapeutic        agent in vastswathes of contemporary research studies. Music is always about more        than just acoustic events or notes on a page. Music has a universal and timeless        potential to influence how we feel. Yet, only recently, have researchers begun to        explore and understand the positive effects that music can have on ourwellbeing -        across a range of cultures and musical genres.This book brings together research        from music psychology, therapy, public health, and medicine, to explore the        relationship between music, health and wellbeing. It presents a range of chapters        from internationally recognised experts, resulting in a comprehensive,        multidisciplinary, and pluralistic account of recent advances and applications in        both clinical and non-clinical practice and research.Some of the questions explored        include: what is the nature of the scientific evidence to support the relationship        between music, health and wellbeing? What are the current views from different        disciplines on empirical observations and methodological issues concerning the        effects of musical interventions on health-related processes? What are the        mechanisms which drive these effects and how can they be utilised for building        robust theoretical frameworks for future work?For the first time, research from        disciplines including neuroscience of music, music therapy, psychophysiology and        epidemiology of music, community music and music education is synthesised and        presented together to further our understanding of music and health in one single        volume, ensuring that closely related strands of research in different disciplines        are brought together into a authoritative, comprehensive and robust collection of        chapters.This book is a timely and unique response to an explosion of interest in        the relationship between music, health, and wellbeing and will be invaluable        resources for students, administrators and researchers in the humanities, social and        medical sciences alike.
