The sensitivity to atmospheres is an important prerequisite for supporting individuals with dementia. Jan Sonntag, a music therapist with years of experience working with people with dementia, presents his concept of atmosphere-related practice in this book. Grounded in extensive qualitative research, he connects the philosophical concepts of atmosphere with the experiential world of dementia. On this basis, he develops a step-by-step aesthetic understanding of therapy. This provides both professionals in therapy and care, as well as those engaged in scientific work, with a clear picture of how atmospheres can be perceived and shaped in the support of people with dementia.
