Musikaliserede vitaliseringsformer: ritualiserede overgange i livsløbet

Abstract

Inspired by concepts of musicking (Small) and transition (Lenzen) the article investigates the relations between music and wellbeing (trivsel), by analyzing the significance of transitions across the human life span (part I). Then, I introduce my theoretical inspiration from Dieter Lenzen (part II). Then, I explain the connections between musicking and transitions through five different practical examples (part III and IV). Then, I follow up by elaborating a theoretical concept of ritualized musicking developed by Chr. Small (part V).
