Music at the bedside brings beauty, intimacy, and comfort to end-of-life patients. It invites listeners to be present to what is going on both inside and around them. Catharine DeLong’s workshop offers the most effective uses of live vocal, instrumental, and recorded music for palliative individuals and their loved ones. She brings her experience as a freelance harpist, certified music-thanatologist, contemplative musician, and end-of-life educator to support patients and families and help them encounter the dying process as a natural passage.
