Therapeutic Music

1 Therap Sessions.jpg

Therapeutic Sessions

Live, intimate music for the anxious or ailing.  The main principles of music - melody, harmony, rhythm - are adjusted according to the specific needs of the patient to soothe pain and anxiety, and regain inner balance.  These personalised sessions are an opportunity for the listener to let go, and just be.

Professional Development

Private coaching for therapeutic musicianship.  From modal improvisation to playing at the bedside, Swan Harp Studios can assist with the many aspects of music education, therapy and professional presentation required of a clinical musician.

For seniors, carers and inexperienced musicians interested in therapeutic music, the Reverie Harp is recommended.  It combines well with singing and can be used confidently at the bedside and for group music-making.  Small group classes are recommended.
