Title	The Use of Music in Healthcare Contexts: A Select Review of Writings From the 1890s to the 1940s
Authors	Jane Edwards
Abstract	Playing live music with people who are ill to promote optimal states of health and well being is a contemporary practice which has origins as far back as the written historical record. This paper examines a select range of literature from the academic spheres of medicine, music and music education published in the late 19th century through to the mid 20th century in order to interrogate and explore aspects of the history of music therapy and its development in the English speaking world.
