In issue 2 of this year, we announced that Grace Thompson agreed to become co-Editor-in-Chief and that Claire Ghetti was stepping down from her role as Associate Editor (Bradt, 2021). Because of these changes, we launched a search for two new Associate Editors and we are excited to announce that Andeline dos Santos and Stine Camilla Blichfeldt-Ærø joined our editorial team. Andeline is Senior Lecturer and Research Coordinator for the School of the Arts at the University of Pretoria (South Africa). Her clinical and research expertise is in music therapy with high school students. She recently published an article about her research in our journal (dos Santos, 2020). Stine is a music therapy clinician at Oslo University Hospital, Division of Paediatric and Adolescent Medicine and is part-time instructor in the Master’s program in music therapy at the Norwegian Academy of Music. Stine brings medical music therapy expertise to our team and has a special interest in discursive differences and challenges, on a philosophical, practical and academic level. We would like to thank Jason Butler, Editor of The Arts in Psychotherapy, for his time and valuable feedback as external member of our search committee. In addition, we would like to inform you about recent changes in our Advisory Editorial Board (AEB). Several AEB members rotated off the board after many years of service. We would like to sincerely thank them for their guidance and input during the past years: Drs. Jos De Backer, Cheryl Dileo, Denise Grocke, Helen Odell-Miller, Clare O’ Callaghan, Paul Nolan and Barbara Wheeler. We are happy to welcome several new AEB members: Dr. Kana Okazaki-Sakaue from Kobe University (Kobe, Japan), Dr. Sumathy Sundar from Chennai School of Music Therapy (Chennai, India) and Ga Eul Yoo from Ewha Womans University (Seoul, Republic of Korea). In this issue, we are delighted to include six research papers and one book review. The first two research papers collected important data about community understandings of music therapy and the growth of the profession in two countries for the first time. Karulkar, Gunjawate and Sundar (p. xx) conducted a survey of parents in India whose children access special education and therapy services to better understand parents’ awareness and knowledge of music therapy. They note that India has a long history of health and healing practices that include various music experiences, and yet there are still only small numbers of certified music therapists practicing in the country. This is the first survey of its kind in India, and therefore provides important insights into the professional standing of music therapy and the potential demand for future services. Seventy-
在今年的第2期，我们宣布格蕾丝·汤普森同意成为联合主编，克莱尔·盖蒂将辞去副主编的职务(布拉德，2021年)。由于这些变化，我们开始寻找两位新的副编辑，我们很高兴地宣布，Andeline dos Santos和Stine Camilla Blichfeldt-Ærø加入我们的编辑团队。安德琳是南非比勒陀利亚大学艺术学院的高级讲师和研究协调员。她的临床和研究专长是对高中生进行音乐治疗。她最近在我们的杂志上发表了一篇关于她的研究的文章(dos Santos, 2020)。Stine是奥斯陆大学医院儿科和青少年医学部的音乐治疗临床医生，同时也是挪威音乐学院音乐治疗硕士课程的兼职讲师。Stine为我们的团队带来了医学音乐治疗专业知识，并对哲学，实践和学术层面的话语差异和挑战特别感兴趣。我们要感谢《心理治疗艺术》的编辑杰森·巴特勒，他作为我们遴选委员会的外部成员，花时间提供了宝贵的反馈。此外，我们想通知您关于我们的咨询编辑委员会(AEB)最近的变化。几名AEB成员在服务多年后轮休。我们衷心感谢他们在过去几年的指导和投入。Jos De Backer, Cheryl Dileo, Denise Grocke, Helen Odell-Miller, Clare O ' Callaghan, Paul Nolan和Barbara Wheeler。我们很高兴地欢迎AEB的几位新成员:来自神户大学(日本神户)的Kana Okazaki-Sakaue博士，来自钦奈音乐治疗学院(印度钦奈)的Sumathy Sundar博士和来自梨花女子大学(韩国首尔)的Ga Eul Yoo博士。在本期中，我们很高兴收录了六篇研究论文和一篇书评。前两篇研究论文首次收集了有关两个国家社区对音乐治疗的理解和该行业发展的重要数据。Karulkar, Gunjawate和Sundar (p. xx)对印度接受特殊教育和治疗服务的孩子的父母进行了调查，以更好地了解父母对音乐治疗的认识和知识。他们指出，印度在健康和治疗实践方面有着悠久的历史，其中包括各种音乐体验，但在该国执业的认证音乐治疗师仍然很少。这是印度首个此类调查，因此对音乐治疗的专业地位和未来服务的潜在需求提供了重要的见解。七十-

ABSTRACT Introduction Since the COVID-19 pandemic started in Europe early 2020, day-to-day practice in care homes has changed considerably. Common elements of music therapy – singing, physical contact, proximity – have become questionable. This study explores the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on music therapy provision and continuation in Dutch care homes. Method In December 2020 and January 2021 Dutch music therapists (n = 49) working in elderly care filled out an online survey on their experiences with the COVID-19 pandemic during the first and second wave. Results Twenty different measures were deployed to adapt and continue music therapy throughout the pandemic. Music therapists were required to deploy social distancing, disinfect hands and instruments, and wear a face mask. Residents from different units were frequently unable to participate in music therapy together. Prevalent adaptations were to provide sessions in a common room (79.6%), in smaller groups (67.4%), for more (individual) residents than usual (65.3%) and to use pre-recorded playlists (65.3%). Music therapists experienced low stress and moderate to high hope, despite the substantial impact of the pandemic on professional and personal musical activities. Discussion Music therapy provision in care homes has repeatedly been subject to restrictions throughout the pandemic. By the end of the second wave, music therapy had been resumed in care homes, albeit with a range of preventive measures implemented in daily work routines. The pandemic shed light on adaptability of music therapy as a treatment and demonstrates that employer support is essential to enable music therapy provision.

ABSTRACT Introduction The quality and quantity of music therapy research are increasing, as are the number of systematic reviews and meta-analyses. However, the latter often define the effect of music therapy treatment as inconclusive. This is frequently due to a lack of clear description of the intervention or the core function of music. Clearly described music therapy interventions might lead to improved treatment fidelity. This article offers a possible solution in three parts. First, limitations in music therapy research are discussed. Second, the design for a format of a practice-based intervention description is explained. In the third part of the article, an example illustrates the use of the format. Method The suggested micro-intervention format could lead to a greater reliability in empirical research through the recognition of the working-mechanisms of music therapy intervention at a micro-level. The micro-intervention format was created in collaboration with practicing music therapists, Master students, and a board member for scientific innovation of a professional association. Results The micro-intervention format allows music therapists to describe music therapy interventions in detail, including the intervention and its musical working-mechanisms. The format is intended to guide music therapists to execute their intervention in comparable manners, which in the case of a scientific study could improve research fidelity. “Music therapeutic guidance to reduce agitation in dementia care using improvisation and familiar songs” is used to illustrate the micro-intervention format. Discussion Development and dissemination of music therapy micro-interventions could lead to improved research outcomes and strengthen the evidence-based foundation of the profession.

When COVID-19 brought a sudden and dramatic hiatus to ordinary work life in March 2020, we did not think for a moment we’d still be experiencing the lingering effects of this pandemic more than two years later. In fact, when this special online volume was imagined, it was primarily about capturing a moment in time, one that we were living through in real time together. As we know from our experiences of making music with people in music therapy, capturing something in real time is both beautiful and challenging. How we see COVID in our work is quite different now than even one year ago and will continue to change as we move into the next phase of this pandemic and beyond. At the time of writing this editorial, more than 900,000 COVID-related deaths have been reported in the United States, 138,000 in the United Kingdom, and 1.7 million in Europe. The omicron variant is widespread, with very high infection rates throughout the world. Rates of infection and government responses, including lockdowns and travel restrictions, continue to impact everyday life, including the lives of clinicians and educators, students and, most of all, those trying to receive healthcare. The articles presented in this special volume help us to consider what we were living through during this time, and to reflect upon clinical and educational practices now and into the future. The sudden move to teletherapy, and the stress and isolation experienced by clients, their families and therapists, has left an indelible mark on our profession. While it appears that our work as clinicians, educators and researchers is irreversibly changed, we are still living through these impacts, and it may be a number of years before we are fully able to understand them. The beauty of the articles included in this special volume is the different ways these authors ask us to consider this time period, and in so doing, reconsider or reimagine our work. “Relationship” is a central theme in this issue: the authors ask us to reimagine the relationships we have with our clients, reconsider the ways clients access and engage in therapy, reflect on the ways music therapy managers encountered the challenges of providing services for patients, and reframe the ways educators adapted their work with students. Sharing the same learning experiences together – whether as client/therapist, as student/educator, or peer-to-peer – is also a recurring theme. The articles speak to the humanity of our work, the moral dilemmas of care during early COVID, and the creative ways these authors responded to the stress, uncertainty and fear of the time periods in which they are writing (predominantly May to August 2020). In “Shaping the digital space” (p. 203) Kerry Devlin invites us to reconsider what our relationships with therapy participants mean when not experienced in a physical space together. The vividness of Devlin’s writing brings the therapy room alive and guides us through the challenges of moving online. In he

ABSTRACT Introduction The study explores the theme “stigma” and how it was experienced by participants in MOT82, a music therapy project in the field of mental health aftercare in Norway. The theme is explored through the research questions: How is stigmatisation experienced by participants in a music therapy project in the field of mental health in aftercare? And: Which strategies can be used to prevent stigma in the context of music therapy in mental health aftercare? Method The method for the study is based on User Interviewing User, a method for evaluation of health services, where the service users are actively involved in the entire research process. The analyses were qualitative processes within a hermeneutic abductive approach highlighting reflexivity as an important part of the research process. Results The participants in the study expressed MOT82 to be a positive arena that fostered experiences of mastery, personal development, inclusion, and a strong collaborative community. However, the participants also highlighted the theme of stigma, expressed through stories about mechanisms of exclusion; negative processes of labelling; and how stigma could be related to issues concerning illness, health, and treatment. Discussion Findings related to the theme of stigma are discussed and illuminated by theory from sociology, music therapy, stigma research and recovery; emphasising the concepts of social capital, performance and the importance of a user perspective. With regards to the matter of destabilising stigma, the message from the participants in MOT82 is clear: Tone down the focus on mental illness, turn up the volume regarding the importance of doing music.

ABSTRACT Introduction As a complex phenomenon, musical improvisation can be addressed from the perspective of different disciplines. In music therapy, improvisation is a central practice; however, as a technique, it lacks methodological guidelines and scientific evidence justifying its use. The aim of this study was to investigate the social interaction features that emerge during group musical improvisation. We conducted a mixed methods study with an exploratory sequential design comparing improvisation and imitation tasks, performed by groups of younger and older adults, separately, by generating and analyzing six categories of nonverbal communication and social interaction. Method Younger (n = 131) and older adults (n = 110) participated in one of two types of music activities: group musical improvisation or group rhythmic imitation. Eight group musical improvisation tasks – as implemented in music therapy settings – were compared with eight group rhythmic imitation tasks, according to six categories of analysis: visual contact, body movement, type of production, music interaction, vocal aspect, and leadership. Results Statistical analysis using a Chi-square test (χ2) showed greater social interaction among the participants of the improvisation groups than among those in the rhythmic imitation groups, in both age ranges. Conclusion Our results provide specific evidence for this type of music task and a complementary approach to musical improvisation analysis, contributing to the knowledge of music therapy.

In music therapy, improvisation is a central practice; however, as a technique, it lacks methodological guidelines and scientific evidence justifying its use. The aim of this study was to investigate the social interaction features that emerge during group musical improvisation. We conducted a mixed methods study with an exploratory sequential design comparing improvisation and imitation tasks, performed by groups of younger and older adults, separately, by generating and analyzing six categories of nonverbal communication and social interaction.

ABSTRACT Introduction Mental health issues in children involve complexities and life challenges for the child and their families. Music therapy as part of treatment in mental health care focuses on interaction and communication through music, with emphasis on the children’s resources. There is a small, but growing amount of research in the field of music therapy with children in mental health care. Method This qualitative study explored children’s own experiences of music therapy in mental health care at the hospital. This was done through a multiple case study design, including semi-structured interviews with seven children and participant observations. A narrative approach informed by “portraiture” was used in the analysis process in order to highlight non-dominant experiences and allow for multiple modalities in the analysis and in the presentation of findings. Findings The children’s experiences were expressed through various modalities. These were displayed through narratives representing the core of the interview with each particular child. The word fun became a prominent emerging theme across the cases. Discussion In the children’s expressions, the word fun seemed to be a container of experiences, with rich variations and multiple meanings. Through a thorough attention to this word and the children’s actions before, after and while they spoke, multidimensional meanings of the word emerged. Through listening to the children’s own experiences, fun proved to be an essential part of music therapy in mental health care with children, not as mere entertainment, but as something of existential importance and with great therapeutic potentials.
