In this class we will survey the many roles of music, and – more generally – sound, for promoting human wellbeing, socially, psychologically, and physiologically, curatively and preventively, throughout the ages (but primarily in the contemporary period). Readings, listenings, and viewings will include research outputs (ethnographic, clinical, experimental, or applied) as well as primary source material, touching on a broad spectrum of topics across the arts, humanities, social sciences, sciences, applied sciences, and health sciences. Possible topics include music and sound in ritual or meditation, musical ecstasy/trance, music and the metaphysical, music as medicine, medical ethnomusicology, (community) music therapy, music and resilience, music and trauma, music and global/public health, the power of natural soundscapes, music for global human development, music and social networks, music of/for immigrants and refugees, music and community empowerment, psychology of music, music and the brain, music and pandemic, music and sound for mental health. During the course of the term students will investigate a particular topic of interest, as well as design and carry out a short, original research project, whose writeup will serve as the final paper.

Overview:

In this class we will survey the many roles of music, and – more generally – sound, for promoting wellbeing, socially, psychologically, and physiologically, curatively and preventively, individually and collectively, throughout the ages (but primarily in the contemporary period). Readings, listenings, and viewings will include research outputs (ethnographic, clinical, experimental, or applied) as well as primary source material, touching on a broad spectrum of topics across the arts, humanities, social sciences, sciences, applied sciences, and health sciences. Possible topics include music and sound in ritual or meditation, musical ecstasy/trance, music and the metaphysical, music as medicine, medical ethnomusicology, (community) music therapy, music and resilience, music and trauma, music and global/public health, the power of natural soundscapes, music for global human development, music and social networks, music of/for immigrants and refugees, music and community empowerment, psychology of music, music and the brain, music and pandemic, music and sound for mental health. During the course of the term students will investigate a particular topic of interest, as well as design and carry out a short, original research project, whose writeup will serve as the final paper.
