UNTIL DEATH.. TO ACCOMPANY LIFE WITH MUSIC: ANNETTAS STORY
Roberto Bellavigna, Casa di Riposo Rossi Sidoli Compiano
Parma
Annetta is a woman that lived in a Home. She was a very
religious person and before entering the home for the olderly Rossi
Sidoli in Compiano near Parma (Italy) she lived in a town in the
mountains. She was a self-sufficienct person, she singed and
listened to music in the different context of my work of
musictherapy. In these last years when I worked with musictherapy
with different people (with Dementia, Alzheimer ecc) Annetta came
near me and my accordion and participated, intoned songs or
suggested the words. She liked the accordions sound and when she
was a young person she danced folk music. But her conditions of
health slowly aggravated and Annetta lived the end of her life in
her room in bed. Few people went into the room, her relatives lived
in America and she wasnt married. I went beside Annettas bed with
my accordion and with improvised music and songs I have accompanied
her life until the end. In this experience Annetta frequently sang
one famous song that was about the separation from the mountains
and the mother. She frequently demanded this song. My work with
musictherapy in this situation hasnt changed the word of the song
but with calibrate use of accordion have varied the parameters of
sound, time, dynamic, and the structure of the song to adapt to
annettas situation to accompany her life towards the silent. This
experience used the method of Sonorous Dialogue with reference to
Humanistic Musictherapy used in Italy.

II) AbstractMUSICTHERAPY IN THE HOME WITH OLD PEOPLE , RATING
AND ORGANIZATION.
The applicative view of musictherapy with old people, offers a
variety of situations as much as from an institutional point of
view as from an applicative case. This operating diversity turns
out to be, in my opinion, a point of force of the discipline. A
richness of interests emerges and an unquestionable effort towards
common values of action. More and more informative channels are
opening useful for a cohesion of intentions, in Italy and in
foreign countries. Center of the objective are obviously old people
in their relationship with the sound. In this international contest
My participation will illustrate my activity in the Casa di Riposo
Rossi Sidoli near Parma (Italy) a big Home for old people. Here Im
working with self-sufficienct people, people with Alzheimer
Dementia Parkinson disease or people at the end of life. The
context and the setting is different but there are common
objectives: social integration, activation of rehabilitation of
movement through music, prevention of loss of cognitive skills ,to
accompany life with music until death. This work is organized in
agreement with other people who work in the home. In Compiano we
exploit protocols to analyse the results. In this context In these
years we have worked to elaborate protocol that has one clear
development of the different situations in musictherapy. These
protocols are used in others homes in Italy. This project used the
method of Sonorous dialogue with reference at Humanistic
Musictherapy used in Italy.
