Autism and Family-Centered Approaches in and through Music

Authors

Abstract

Abstract Music practitioners with various qualifications, including music therapists and music educators, acknowledge that musical experiences offer a form of expression, interaction, and understanding that do not rely on words. Musical interactions and engagement may therefore offer a valuable context that can support diverse forms of communication and connection in early childhood that are advantageous for child development. The potential benefits of music participation for children on the autism spectrum are illustrated through descriptions of two distinct approaches: the Sounds of Intent framework, which aims to identify and promote music engagement and musical development over time; and family-centered music therapy, which aims to foster the child’s development and strengthen parent-child relationships. The dual perspectives presented in this chapter highlight possible benefits both in music and also through music for other areas of development, such as social communication, language, and cognition.
