Wow i loved this video. Like many other tiny things throughout the day it gives me that little extra push to continue with renewed vigour my music therapy studies. Thanks for posting this video, we need more publicity for our noble profession!
Just watching this video is so UPLIFTING! HOW CAN ONE NOT BE MOVED by it?! More like what condition DOESN'T MUSIC heal? Thank you for this, it is exquisite. C= Namaste.
Beautiful! I am majoring in music composition at ASU and considering changing my major to Music Therapy. This really helps. I can really relate with the quote that says music is what our feelings sound like.
At Maryville University (the school I'm a sophomore at) we are encouraged to be proficient in as many instruments as possible, but it's only required to be proficient in voice, piano, and guitar. (You have to take a proficiency test before you graduate) and you choose any instrument to major in, even your voice. You also are considered proficient in percussion, as you take a class on it, but there is no testing. Ukulele is popular for MTs, and REALLY easy.
Music Therapy is also a part of other "Rhythm Therapies" such as drum therapy, dance therapy and horse therapy. Music Therapy true potential is just beginning to be realized!! Thanks, Phil Waigand "THE BEAT" (Heart Hoof Drum)
That's a tough decission - I love music composition as much as I love music therapy. It's great how the two go hand-in-hand. I hear that ASU (Arizona, right?) has a great program for MT.
Music Therapy is the intentional use of music to achieve a specific goal (often behavioral). If you're really interested in exploring the idea of becoming a music therapist three books that I would recommend are This Is Your Brain On Music, Musicophelia, and Music As Medicine (get this one with a box of tissues). American Music Therapy Association will have resources to help as a guide in beginning your education, internship, and board certification.
I am not going to get into a semantic disscussion about classifying therapies. Yet, I can say after being a part of many horse and music therapy sessions that .both therpaies are incredibly interconnected in providing a "freeing" effect for the participants based in the basic rhtyms of life. Thanks for your view point. Phil Waigand "THE BEAT"

@vanight Music Therapy is much more than just 'Music & Counseling', and I would need more than a few sentences to explain why. I don't know what your current job is and couldn't tell you if you would make more or less than what you earn right now. I've just begun in the professionaly and I do quite well.
Sadly, there's only so much you can do when the vast majority of people, and even other doctors, think we're all just a bunch of hippies singing "kumbaya" in a circle together...
Valid observation, however I would clasify dance therapy and drum therapy as sub-therapies of music therapy. Also, there is a lot more to music therapy than just rhythm, therefore declasifying it as strictly a 'rhythm therapy'. I would also put 'horse therapy' under the broader 'animal therapy', but I don't enough about it to validate that claim.
It depends on how much education you have generally. Bachelors don't make as much as Majors, and phDs make quite a bit more than both. I'll be honest, I've never met a filthy rich Music Therapist, but I've also never met a Music Therapist that is bad off. I read that on average a Music Therapist's starting salary is somewhere between 30-50K a year. I met a doctorate who confessed she made close to 100K though. But, to me, I'm just happy helping people =] (though I understand, you gotta eat!)
@CMajor5 1 main instrument required (voice, piano or guitar) and proficiency in the other 2 mentioned. If you want to 'actually' do something with your musical talents, then music therapy is the way to go. Seriously look into it.
I am interested in becoming a music therapist! I find myself drawn to the idea. What kind of instruments do you need to play to be a music therapist? I only sing, and I am currently a vocal performance major.
I feel music therapy could go much further. Music from Great composeers could be further analysed, tested, and "prescribed" to some patients. Instead of bongos and xylophones.
@bmoore326 I too have been looking for something meaningful to use passion for. I am interested in counseling and scored high for that type of profession using the Meyers Briggs test. Music Therapy is like combining Music and Counseling. I do have a more logistical question, does this profession pay enough to realistically one day stop my current profession and do it full time? I really have no no idea, and I doubt there is an public info about it.
Hello. I'm a student of Psycology. I'm from Mexico. Could you please recommend books about Musictherapy??? I would like to know about it. Thank you. I´m form Mexico
There has been much confusion about the song. It is Karl Jenkins' "Adiemus" - NOT ENYA. I know the vocalist sounds a lot like her, but I assure you it is not.
Wonderful collection of Quotes and images.

Brillant video love the song x made me realize music is connecting us all.

This is beautiful video
I just realized what I want to do with my life(besides making music)... Thank you for this video.
Very inspiring!
I can't wait to go to college this fall at Colorado State to study music therapy!
Music is audiable emotion.
Music is life!!
I love this song, Enya is amazing :). I am 15 and I want to get into music therapy after school. I like the picture at 1:54.

The song is caled Adiemus by the group Adiemus. It has been used on Survivor and other popular shows.
Music Therapy is also a part of other
"Rhythm Therapies" such as drum
therapy, dance therapy and horse therapy.

adiemus by karl jenkins. we did this song in marching band two years ago

That means a lot to me. The whole reason I assembled this video is so others could use it in presentations. I hope you'll keep using it in the future.
I am not going to get into a semantic
disscussion about classifying therapies.
Yet, I can say after being a part of many horse and music therapy sessions that .both therpaies are incredibly interconnected in providing
a "freeing" effect for the participants
based in the basic rhtyms of life.
Thanks for your view point.

Music Therapy also blends with
Horse Therapy where basic rhythms
can work together to empower
and lift the spirit!!
USU has the best program in the country in music therapy

@RogueRotting360 you probably already know by now, but it's called "adiemus" by Enya.
Working in the disability field has it
"pros and cons" like any other health
field endeavor including "safety issues"
which is about working one on one
with individuals. Yet the, positives far
outweigh any possible "negatives"

Thanks for your thoughts. The song is actually called Adiemus by the group Adiemus.
nice..

I'm actually also considering double-majoring in both. That would be a lot of work, though.
It's from BROTHER BEAR!

That was my fault. In the video description I accidentally put "by Adiemus" until megnigma corrected me. I have since fixed it.

The music is not by Adiemus, it is by Karl Jenkins.
Nice photos though, thank you.
And yes you can go on the internet and RUclips and find things like "Adiemus by Enya" but they are wrong too.

What do you mean, "pros and cons" and "safety issues"?
Thanks
