CREMAH

CREMAH stands for Center for Research in Music and Health and aims to develop new knowledge, understanding, evidence and critical reflection through research in music therapy and on music as a health resource for people and society.

About us

Music gives access to aesthetic and existential experiences that are profound to the human being as a whole. Music also engages identity work and social participation. Due to constraints and challenges related to illness, disability, or challenges connected to economic, cultural and social -conditions/contexts, many people do not have access to music.

CREMAH argues that music is a valuable resource that offered to all human beings, alone and/or in groups: Music is a democratic right that belongs to all of us, either as recipients of music as an art form and cultural offer, and/or as active participants in music and musical activities, through music listening, singing and playing.

This is a mission, a social mandate, that the Norwegian Academy of Music (NMH) has, and a responsibility that CREMAH takes.
