Music Therapy

The human voice is one of our most fundamental forms of expression.​​

​

It accompanies us from the very beginning of life - long before we find words. And yet, within music therapy, the voice still plays a comparatively subordinate role.

​

But the voice can be far more than a means of musical expression.

​

It is encounter.
It is resource.

​

And it can make audible what has nor yet founds its way into words.

​

This is where the vagusonar perspective begins.

​

It approaches classical singing nor primarily as an artistic discipline, but as a body-based way of engaging with the voice. The aim is nor to learn how to sing classically. What matters is how sound emerges within the body, how ist unfolds and how it is perceived.

​

In recent years, there has been growing interst in humming, vocal sound, breathing and the vagus nerve. Within music therapy, too, body-oriented approaches are increasingly moving into focus.

​

Vagusonar understands itself as a complementary approach. It brings together observations from classical vocal pedagogy with current perspectives from body- and experience-oriented therapeutic approaches.

​

In this way, the voice can become a bridge - between bodily perception, musical expression and therapeutic support.

​

Free from vocal judgement, a space for experience can emerge in which people can encounter their own voice without any previous singing experience.

​

At the same time, this opens a dialogue between classical vocal pedagogy, music therapy and other body-oriented disciplines.
