Music and the Social Model: An Occupational Therapist's Approach to Music with People Labelled as Having Learning Disabilities

by Jane Williams

Music has always been an essential part of what it is to be human and yet not everyone has access to the music-based opportunities others take for granted. Motivated by the belief that individuals are disabled by society rather than any impairment they might have, Jane Williams sets out to show how someone with learning difficulties can engage with music in as many diverse and fulfilling ways as the rest of their community and generation.
