“…Clinical evidence has shown that the use of external rhythmic auditory cueing can aid in the rehabilitation of motor movements such as gait in patients with Parkinson's disease, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury and Huntington's disease (Thaut et al, 2015). Neurological music therapy techniques can promote sensorimotor rehabilitation (Mainka et al, 2016). Music can support improvement in movement in a range of conditions, improving individuals' quality, range and speed of movement.…”

Evangelos HimonidesDr Evangelos Himonides held the University of London's first ever lectureship in music technology education and now holds the country's first ever Chair in Technology, Education, and Music. Evangelos works at University College London, where he leads a number of courses and supervises doctoral and post-doctoral research. At postgraduate level, he has led and now serves the MA in Music Education programme at UCL, with courses in 'Music Technology in Education' and 'Choral Conducting, Leadership and Communication'. At undergraduate level, Evangelos developed UCL's first ever music-related course in the Institution's near two-century history, which is called 'Interactions of Music & Science' and offered under the innovative Bachelors of Arts and Sciences (BASc) programme. He is fellow of the RSA and Chartered Fellow (FBCS CITP) of the British Computer Society. As a musician, technologist and educator, Evangelos has had an ongoing career in experimental research in the fields of Psychoacoustics, Music Perception, Music Cognition, IT, Human-Computer Interaction, Special Needs, the Singing Voice & Singing Development. Publications currently number over two hundred in high-profile international journals, such as Frontiers of Psychology and Cognitive Science, Psychology of Music, IJME, RSME, Journal of Voice, Logopedics Phoniatrics Vocology. Evangelos has been working on numerous funded research projects for leading UK Research Councils such as the AHRC, ESRC, EPSRC, grant-making foundations/charities such as The Paul Hamlyn Foundation, RNIB, the AmberTrust and the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, government agencies/departments (such as DfES, QCA) and also the European Union. Evangelos is associate editor for the Journal of Music, Technology and Education (Intellect), associate editor of Frontiers in Psychology, past associate editor for the Journal Logopedics Phoniatrics Vocology xv Author Biographies (Informa Healthcare), reviews editor for Psychology of Music (SAGE), editor of the Society for Education and Music Psychology Research (SEMPRE) Conference Series, and section editor for 'technology' for the Oxford Handbook of Music Education. Evangelos has co-edited, with Andrew King, two key volumes in Technology, Music and Education, published by Routledge.As a sound engineer and researcher, Evangelos has recorded in numerous venues (including York Minster, St.Paul's, RCM), with various artists such as Derek Lee Ragin (Farinelli), Vanessa Mae (SONY BMG) and Jarvis Cocker (Pulp) and for numerous media productions (for the BBC, Ch5, Discovery Channel, RTL, CBS, PBS, History Channel).Evangelos has developed the free online technologies for Sounds of Intent, Inspire-Music and the Online Afghan Rubab Tutor. In his spare time, Evangelos likes to record music, play guitar, and handcraft musical instruments in order to raise funds for his charitable work.

“…Overall, music does seem to be able to contribute to the management of pain. This is gradually being recognised and the processes involved more fully understood so that treatment techniques can be refined to meet patients' needs more effectively (Mainka et al, 2016). 15.…”

This OSF project contains the source and supplementary materials for the book "The Power of Music: an exploration of the evidence" (under review). This book was written to provide an update to The power of music: A research synthesis of the impact of actively making music on the intellectual, social and personal development of children and young people. As the evidence was collated, it became clear that much more research had been undertaken since the original book was produced and that that research was focused on a much wider age range with particular expansion in work with older age groups. It was therefore decided to expand the book to include research across the lifespan covering a wider range of issues, particularly those relating to health and wellbeing as these have become more important in the research agenda in recent years. The title referring to an exploration of the research was selected to make it possible to take account of all kinds of research from large scale population studies to single case studies, correlation studies, experiments and evaluations of interventions with a focus on both listening to and actively making and creating music. Some interventions that have several different outcomes are mentioned in more than one chapter. As there has been much controversy recently as to whether music can have any impact, particularly on cognition, it was felt important to include examples of individual research projects for the reader to be able to draw their own conclusions about the impact of music rather than relying on a summary, although an overview is provided at the end of each chapter. This means that the book is not always an easy read. Some of the research is extremely complex and takes time to understand. It is hoped that despite this it will enable the reader to make an informed decision about the power of music in a range of areas across the lifespan.

“…The large spectrum of applications of the music-based therapy (MBT) nowadays, referred to stress relaxation, recovery from anxiolytic and analgesic behavior, allowing the regulation of the heart and respiration rhythm/rate, and blood pressure in perioperative patients [5], neuro-degenerative and motor diseases, memory and learning difficulties [6], with positive results in cerebral palsy and pain in cancer survivors [7], is a recognition of the high potential of such technique to solve not only neurological health problems, but also allowing to study and understand the activity of various zones of the brain, otherwise non-accessible with other non-destructive and non-invasive methods [8]. However, the personalization healthcare supposes an adequate opening of the communication channels with the patient, the knowing and understanding of the patient's particularities with respect to the rehabilitation objective and method.…”

Multitask Music-Based Therapy Optimization in Aging Neurorehability by Activation of the Informational Cognitive Centers of Consciousness

The rapid increase of the old age people imposes the reconsideration of the rehabilitation techniques and procedures and/or the development of the existing ones, at least from two points of view: the limitation use of the pharmaceutical drugs because of their secondary effects in the debilitated organisms and their avoidance; the high risk of the induced anxiety states, depression or other symptoms as a consequence of the main disease, i.e. the neuro-degenerative or mobility dysfunctions, limiting again the use of such excessive drug medication. Moreover, Alzheimer's or Parknson's diseases are otherwise incurable, so the application of rehabilitating procedures like music-based therapy becomes preferential. The advances both in the identification of the specific auditory musical-sensitive circuits and of the nonmusical neuro-connections but activated indirectly by music, otherwise inaccessible by other techniques, and in the understanding of consciousness, which can be described by seven cognitive centers, allows to improve and develop the music based therapy. A multitask procedure based on the activation of these cognition centers is presented, allowing to increase the personal psychical engagement of the patient in the recommended music based therapeutic program, addressed both to the rehabilitation of the main degenerative disease and to the secondary induced dysfunctions. This procedure combines the evidence based medicine assisted by laboratory expertise for the determination of a correct diagnostic, and narrative based medicine allowing to quantify the personal engaging qualities of the patient with respect to the proposed music based program, reducing in this way the gap between these two basic procedures and bringing in a first plane the patient care, not only the disease, with beneficial consequence for the therapy efficiency and for the patient-medical care relations.
