A Happy New Year to all! There was an article in one of the UK national newspapers recently about Harpists being 'employed' in operating theatres and in Chemotherapy Units to help reduce tension and anxiety in patients. I followed this up by looking at various links to formal Music Therapy and I gather that the Harp, among other instruments, is often used because of its particular properties. I wondered whether the lute would be similarly useful. Has anybody on the list experience of this? best wishes Charles
