Interviews/Conversations with participants ; Community dialogue (group conversations with a large group) ; Reviewing recorded information or documentation (such as finances, attendance records, work plans) ; Observation
Over the course of all the sessions we offered, we had a total of 508 participants with 37 unduplicated participants. Through observation and conversation, participants? moods improved after music therapy classes. Their energy levels were higher each time they attended. For example, learning drumming and new languages from music lessened their social isolation and increased social engagement. Many expressed joy in knowing that such programs exist for them. However, one participant?s caregiver happily informed us that the participant went home after each class humming a tune that brought back memories from their youth singing in a church choir. This is one of many shared instances of positive impacts not only on the client but their caregivers as well.
