5.0 out of 5 stars Clear insight into different models of music therapy, April 30, 2001
By A Customer
This book is a treasure for people who want to know more about music therapy. It compares different models of music therapy always with the same categories, which makes it easy to find differences and similarities. It is not only refered to british music therapy but also to international music therapy (e.g. Orff-model). It actually describes different models of music therapy with the emphasize on improvisation. But don't be scared, it is quite a thick book. If you are interested in music therapy, it is worth it!
