Description

Complete transcripts of the famous 1974 lectures by Paul Nordoff, the late composer-pianist, who with Clive Robbins, pioneered Creative Music Therapy. In these penetrating sessions, Dr. Nordoff dialogues with his students about the expressive dynamics of each tonal and rhythmic component of music, and through musical examples from various composers throughout history, demonstrates their therapeutic significance. This book is a foundational text for all music therapists who use improvisation as therapy. Its main goal is to develop the awareness, intuition, and experiential understanding of music needed to bring its healing powers to others through creative improvisation.
