Background: Palliative care is an interdisciplinary medical approach for people with illnesses that are unresponsive to curative treatment. Music therapy has been gaining ground in this field since the 1970s, with a not-always-standardized range of interventions and musical techniques. Objective: The purpose of this systematic review is to analyze interventions with music therapy and new developments in this area in the field of palliative care. Methods: The primary source of data for this review was the online database Web of Science (WOS). We also used other databases such as Medline and Scopus. A systematic search was performed of the past 6 years following the PRISMA criteria. Results: From a selection of 310 documents, we reviewed 54 completed articles and included 19 studies in the review. The percentage of agreement in the selection of articles was 87.5% and the Cohen Kappa index of inter-rater reliability was 0.727. In 5 of the articles, the musical interventions were not specified. However, in the remaining 14 they were, including new developments such as use of the monochord and the body tambura, and adaptation of the RBL (Rhythm, Breath & Lullaby) method. Conclusions: There has been notable improvement in the specification of musical interventions during music therapy sessions in palliative care. However, articles in this field need to describe how these techniques are carried out and any new developments. All this without forgetting that the patient’s musical preferences are a fundamental aspect when performing music therapy sessions.

“…In Finland, approaches to early childhood music therapy was documented (n = 25; Tuomi & Ala-Ruona, 2011 and parent-infant music therapy was surveyed in the Netherlands (n = 106, from which 25 people identified as working with families; Krantz, 2014). In the United Kingdom, a survey explored music therapy practice in children's hospices and attitudes towards the service (n = 22; Hodkinson et al, 2014). Most recently, music therapists working in neonatal intensive care unit in the USA participated a survey exploring the focus and approach of clinical work, as well as training factors (n = 54; Gooding & Trainor, 2018).…”

“…For example, in the study from the USA, 78% of music therapists working with autistic people collaborated with family members or other caregivers (Kern et al, 2013). In the Netherlands, the most common practice was to include parents directly within the sessions (Krantz, 2014), and this tendency was also reported from children's hospice settings in the UK (Hodkinson et al, 2014).…”

Music therapists have described the importance of working collaboratively with family members in various populations throughout the history of the profession. Despite the growing amount of literature, not enough is known regarding the scope of theoretical perspectives and therapeutic approaches that guide family centered music therapy. The aim of this international survey study was to better understand the professional perspectives and approaches of music therapists who work with families around the world. This article presents the results of the survey where a total of 125 responses were analysed. Participants’ responses indicated that music therapy with families is well established as an important field of practice that includes a large range of populations across the life span. Music therapists working with families emphasise that the work is holistic and flexible, both in terms of the theoretical approaches that inform their work and the methods/techniques that are included in sessions. The participants in this study advocated for more continuing professional development opportunities to further deepen and develop their practice. In addition, the survey data offers priorities and recommendations for future research.
