초록

Part I ¹ of this paper presented the clinical case of Bill: a participant in the research study investigating the role of relationships completion in palliative care music therapy. Part II presents a brief overview of the research study, and the results of Bill’s case (one of the four primary participants). The study sought to answer the primary question: What is the experience of a dying person engaged in a specific music therapy treatment program intended to facilitate relationship completion? The investigation was a phenomenological qualitative inquiry that included multiple data sources analysed through a process coding of the data and identifying themes.
