- Abstract
This retrospective narrative study documents the experiences of three people who were members of a grief choir. A research assistant facilitated a one-time focus group interview. Data from the interview was analyzed using a 17-step structure from Grocke (1999), Forinash and Grocke (2005) and Tuastad & Stige (2015). Ten major categories were derived from the data: 1) the music, 2) performing, 3) sense of purpose, 4) openness and vulnerability, 5) connecting to the music therapists, 6) relationships, 7) fears, 8) insights, 9) long term effects, and 10) recommendations. A discussion section explores the results and future recommendations are offered.
