University of Kansas Music Therapy Song Repertoire Resource List - Spring 2021 - KU School ...
The KU music therapy song repertoire resource list acts as a reference for music therapy
students as they work to develop a diverse repertoire of songs for use in their musical,
pre-clinical, and clinical work. As such, it is a both a document of important songs that
have historically been used in music therapy processes, and a living, breathing
document that will be updated intermittently to maintain the dynamic of new musics.

Songs are categorized and divided into music genres. Genres provide some level of
diversity. Current genres in the book are provided as a general list on page 2, and then
each genre is presented alphabetically, with songs in each genre also presented
alphabetically. This approach helps to make finding songs easier. Some songs will be
cross-referenced. Each song will include either an original artist or the song’s author (or
both), as well as the year the song was written.

This list can help students learn more songs, not only for singing and accompaniment
purposes, but also for using recordings of songs when appropriate. Students are
strongly encouraged to locate and listen to original recordings of songs to help their
learning processes. Original notation in lead sheets is also helpful, especially for
students that excel in reading. A good ear and solid music reading skills help for music
therapists to be efficient in their learning of new songs. Also, looking up the history of a
song helps a clinician make important decisions on how the music may connect with a
client, increasing the potential for its effective use.
