The project Meaningful Music in Healthcare, in short MiMiC, emerged from a collaboration between the research group Lifelong Learning in Music at the Hanze University of Applied Sciences iin Groningen and the department of Surgery at the University Medical Center in Groningen.There seemed to be interesting possibilities in bringing a 'person-centered' musical approach to a hospital setting, where people were severely ill and vulnerable, following surgery. Here, musicians went into the hospital and created music 'in the moment' at the bedside, for and with the patients and their nurses. The research revealed many rich and diverse outcomes and contributed to the awareness that music personalised in this way has transforming potential, which should be utilised as much as possible. -- Adapted from back cover.
