Music & Life in the Field of Play - An Anthology
An anthology of writings and presentations by Carolyn Kenny from 1979 to 2006. Included are two books, The Mythic Artery and The Field of Play, numerous journal articles and book chapters, previously unpublished papers, and a case study. The book utilizes knowledge from many disciplines and shows the parallels between Kenny's lifelong work in music therapy and Indigenous Studies. The anthology has five parts: the mythic journey, field theory for Music Therapy, being Native, practice, and ecological Music Therapy. Each part is introduced by an autobiographical narrative describing the context for sections. A detailed introduction provides the overall context and describes important influences in Kenny's thinking over time.
