“Music therapy is not a single, isolated discipline with clearly defined and unchanging boundaries. Rather it is a dynamic combination of many disciplines around two main subject areas: music and therapy.”

“The client-music interaction lies at the very core of music therapy, shaping the dynamics of all other relationships.”

“Every definition of music therapy sets boundaries foe the field. Having such boundaries is crucial, for without them, it is impossible to know which types of clients and problems are best served by music therapy, which goals and methods are legitimately part of clinical practice, which topics are relevant for theory and research, and what kinds of ethical standards must be upheld.”

― Defining Music Therapy
“Each definition of music therapy reflects a very specific viewpoint on what music is and what is therapeutic about it, what therapy is and how music relates to it, and why people need music and therapy to be healthy.”

“As a fusion of music and therapy, music therapy is at once an art, a science, and an interpersonal process. As an art, it is concerned with subjectivity, individuality, creativity, and beauty. As a science, it is concerned with objectivity, universality, replicability, and truth. As an interpersonal process it is concerned with empathy, intimacy, communication, reciprocity, and role relationships.”
