Introduction to the Florence Tyson Memorial Keynote Lecture: A Tribute to the Life and Legacy of Florence Tyson

초록

Music may offer the only bridge from inner world to outer reality. It may provide the only means to give expression, in a safe way, to inner feelings. ... It is important that the music therapist’s sphere of interest be the inner life of the patient—that the main concern be with the use of music as a vehicle by which this inner reality can be brought to the surface, to be heard, experienced, and examined in the presence of another.

—Florence Tyson
