"Det friske som man da fanga" - En kvalitativ studie om sangskriving med barn på sykehus

Abstract

This master thesis explores how music therapists experience songwriting with children in a Norwegian pediatric context, in light of community music therapy and resource oriented music therapy. This will be illuminated through the use of relevant theoretical perspectives as a foundation to carry out a focus group interview with three music therapists with working experience within a pediatric setting. The findings highlight "possibilities in songwriting", "collaboration in songwriting", "relation in songwriting" and "sharing of songs" as central factors in relation to songwriting.
