About this Unit
Through a combination of music therapy skills and practicum, the unit opens up an exploration of improvisation, instrumental playing, repertoire, song writing, voice work and composition as techniques for music therapy. Videos of case studies are played to illustrate this work. The Practicum introduces students to the practice of music therapy through observing and working with a registered music therapist (RMT).
