Some outstanding songwriting from Sacha, one of our young clients!
Assisted by our music therapist Pete McDonald, the song was created over several weeks. Discussions were had around an activity in Sacha’s week that he enjoys, the things that happen at it and how it makes him feel. With some improvised guitar accompaniment, Sacha sang the words and melody, fitting them in as he saw fit.Recordings were made each week with Sacha choosing the parts he thought most suited the song.
Songwriting is a music therapy intervention that facilitates self-expression by allowing individuals to create and share their thoughts, emotions, and experiences through lyrics and melody
