Title: | A music and health perspective on music's perceived "goodness" | Contributor(s): | Edwards, Jane (author) | Publication Date: | 2011-03-09 | DOI: | 10.1080/08098130903305085 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/27811 | Abstract: | In this paper consideration is given to aspects of social and professional music use premised from a ‘‘music as health’’ perspective. This critical exploration is intended to reveal values about music participation and music listening, with consideration of the way music is constructed as a contributor to social gains within music as health application. The frequently encountered expectation that music participation and music listening are innately good and ‘‘helpful’’ is examined. A range of projects are described and examined with reference to the theme of music’s ‘‘commodified goodness’’ or what has elsewhere been termed, the ubiquitous ‘‘goodness of music’’ (Edwards, 2008b). | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Nordic Journal of Music Therapy, 20(1), p. 90-101 | Publisher: | Routledge | Place of Publication: | United Kingdom | ISSN: | 1944-8260 0809-8131 |
