Music helps us CONNECT • INTERPERSONAL • INTRAPERSONAL What sorts of connections were made between Naomi and Gladys? What sorts of connections were made within Gladys?
Interpersonal connections Gladys & Naomi • Communication, interaction • Intimacy “one person” in sync • Helps to mirror movements • Provides emotional safety because of familiar songs • Making music together • Repetitive motion (responsive behavior) redirected into meaningful communication
Intrapersonal connectionsGladys • Repetitive motion becomes entrained with music and makes meaning and sense • Reconnection with “self” • Elicits appropriate and rhythmically timed response in song • Carryover effect?
Music-making meets 5 main psychosocial needs of PWD (Simpson, 2001) • Comfort – music’s consoling power reaching deep into psyche, beyond words • Attachment – communicative potential of music may continue unimpeded by verbal losses • Inclusion – music is incomplete without PWD’s contribution • Occupation – music-making encourages participation, concentration, imagination, skill • Identity – experience of self in dynamic relationship with another

Humming as presence • Relax and pay attention to the breath • Hum one tone and think of it as home • Move to neighbouring notes slowly • Hum each note sensibly flowing softly in between • Explore melody, finding what is soothing • Repeat melodies with simple words – lullabies, prayers “I am here with you”, “I love you”, “peace my child”, “there is no need to fear” • Listen deeply to pace, pause, texture and breath • Allow for silence
