  2. INTRODUCTION • Music is the one of the most important forms of experience in the world around us, and it is just as old as the world. • Music is a part of our everyday life, it is also our companion in the nature: singing of birds, rustle of the wind, crashing of the waves on the rocks... • It helps to create a relaxing mood in our society ( in stores, waiting rooms, ...)

  3. Specially selected music enables individual aims (happiness at weddings, the sadness at funerals, great triumph at the olympics...)

  4. WHAT IS MUSICAL THERAPY? • It is a therapy with music and musical elements under expert music therapists. With the therapy we support, preserve or resume our emotional and spiritual health.

  5. It is an interesting and attractive method where art and science meet and reach hands to each other. Music therapy has a long history. Research shows that the Egyptians were treating their patients with music therapy already 4 thousand years ago.

  6. It is founded on the fact that music effects human physical and emotional feelings. • Because of its popularity, effectiveness and accessibility it is becoming a more and more important way of treating and restoring, interior peace, harmony, and human balance. • It is suitable as an independent method of calming down, relaxing, discharging and staying healthy.

  7. MUSIC THERAPY IN PSYCHIATRY • We are using music therapy in two forms: • passive • active • Both can be collective or individual and they arise from the belief that specially chosen music can cause positive changes in a patient. With music we therapeutically influence emotional activity. We regulate physical and psychological tension and increase awareness.

  8. ORFF’S INSTRUMENTS • The basic elements for active music therapy are the Orff’s instruments: • Orff’s instruments are different rhytmical and melodic instruments and everybody can play on them with no problems or prior knowledge. • Orff’s instruments : a drum made of wood, drum made of animal skin, symbols, glockenspiel, triangle, xylophone, castanets...

  11. Element music is connected with the move, dance and speech. It is a music where everybody must play and be included as active producers and performers. It is earthly, natural, bodily and accessible music.

  12. HOW DOES THE MUSIC THERAPY WORK? • The voice and body are connected. The body is an instrument and the voice is the sound that comes from the body. • If we want that the voice is harmonical it is necessary that we relax our body. The body is often hard and stiff as a result of stress that our everday life brings. • Stress and tension are visible in our voice and body.

  13. SENSE AND EFFECT • We produce non-verbal communication and creativity. • We use it in therapy in order to make the communication easier, to study and express emotions.

  14. We eliminate stress and tension from our mind, we are more concentrated, we improve memory, reduce tiredness and have a better sleep.

  15. PENTAGONAL • It i s a 5 note scale without half-notes. It is one of the oldest forms of this scale, that the Greeks and theChinese were using in the past. We find it in different forms and almost all over the world.

  16. The Chinese were connecting individual scale notes with the seasons, weather conditions and also with space or with the planets.
