Abstract

While Cage’s 4’33 opens an audience’s ears to how much we silence sounds, we also miss much of what silences convey. It seems Cage’s piece could be entirely about listening. Silence is where we listen from. In what ways can we consider silence in music therapy work? The article revisits PhD research examining the detailed occurrence and management of silences during free improvised musical duets and silences in everyday conversation. This research made use of both musical microanalysis and conversation analysis, identifying similarities and also important differences between verbal and musical exchanges. These findings are still relevant today and provide a solid base from which to consider music therapy improvisatory silences. Applied music and psychoanalytic theory are included, as a way to view and review music psychotherapy work in the area of silence, with two clinical vignettes illustrating the application of these theoretical threads. It is shown that fundamental to an appreciation of silence in therapeutic work is the acknowledgement of a deep, layered listening presence.
在梦的边缘沉默
虽然凯奇的《4分33秒》让观众了解到我们沉默了多少声音,但我们也错过了沉默所传达的很多东西。凯奇的作品似乎完全是关于倾听的。沉默是我们倾听的地方。我们可以从哪些方面考虑音乐治疗中沉默的作用?这篇文章回顾了博士们的研究,研究了在自由即兴音乐二重唱和日常对话中沉默的详细发生和管理。这项研究同时使用了音乐微观分析和对话分析,确定了语言和音乐交流之间的相似之处和重要差异。这些发现在今天仍然具有相关性,并为考虑音乐治疗即兴沉默提供了坚实的基础。应用音乐和精神分析理论包括在内,作为一种方式来查看和审查音乐心理治疗工作在沉默的领域,与两个临床插图说明这些理论线索的应用。研究表明,在治疗工作中,欣赏沉默的基础是承认深层的、分层的倾听存在。
