Grocke (music therapy, U. of Melbourne, Australia) and Wigram (music therapy, U. of Aalborg, Denmark) provide a discussion of the use of receptive listening methods and techniques that clinicians, educators, and students can use in music therapy. The techniques and methods outlined are grounded in evidence-based practice and focus on those used by music therapists, with examples of case material. Methods include music relaxation for children and adults, imaginal listening, song and lyric discussion, song reminiscence, listening based on the client's preferred music, appreciation activities, music collage, and somatic and eurhythmic listening. Each method contains a description of what is involved, scripts, what skills need to be developed, sessions, procedures, and contraindications, as well as appropriate music selections, mostly from the Western classical tradition.
