April 2014 to March 2015:
• 608 were in hospitals
• 970 were in care homes

Gortanvogie Residential Home, Islay
From Scottish Patron Sally Magnusson
Scarcely a day passes it seems without some reference in the media to
the extraordinary power that music has to reach and soothe people
even when they are at their most vulnerable. The current debate about
whether or not music should be played during surgery in hospital
operating theatres is merely the latest example of this recognition.
It was good to see
those living with
dementia so happy
and animated.

From Scottish Convenor Gillian Dinsmore
MUSIC IN HOSPITALS SCOTLAND · 2014-15
The jury may still be out on that particular question, but for people who
are no longer able to attend or participate in musical events in the way
they once were there is little doubt that Music in Hospitals’ ability to
deliver a high quality live performance direct to them in a hospital ward
or care home setting is indeed life-enhancing. As ever, we pay tribute
both to the dedication of our talented musicians and to the generosity of
our many supporters, without which none of it would happen.
Someone asked me the other day, ‘Why do people give to Music in Hospitals?’ And then without
waiting for an answer he said, ‘They like what it does and they like the people who are doing it.’
The fact that wonderful musicians keep coming to MiH to give their gift of music to vulnerable and
ill people and that donors continue their crucial financial support for these performances seems to
confirm this for me.
A highlight of this past year was undoubtedly the hugely successful Shetland Tour (see page 3)
which took place in April thanks to one such longstanding funder, Total E&P UK Limited. And we
are delighted to welcome on board those whose support is new to MiH. At a time when charities
are not having a particularly good press it is heartening to have confirmation that they like what
MiH does and they like the people doing it.

MUSIC IN HOSPITALS SCOTLAND 2014-15
From Chief Executive Alison Frazer
MUSIC IN HOSPITALS SCOTLAND · 2014-15
It is exhilarating to be able to report a 5% increase in concerts during 2014-15.
As ever, our talented musicians have been hard at work bringing the warmth
and cheer of a live performance to many thousands of people in healthcare
settings across the country. We are tremendously grateful to all those whose
support has made this possible.
Feed-back from care staff speaks for itself:
The effect of live music on our
residents’ demeanour and spirits is so
incredibly positive, I look forward to
the MiH concerts as much as they do!

Scottish Government support
Support from the charitable sector
Our major donors have continued to fund numerous projects during the
year, and thanks to the generosity of The Robertson Trust and The Imlay
Foundation live music has reached many more people in care throughout
Scotland. A donation from The William and Patricia Venton Charitable Trust
has meant that day centres across the country have been able to benefit,
and concerts have taken place at care establishments for ex-service personnel
with the help of Poppyscotland. Care units in Aberdeen have been receiving
musical visits funded by an Awards for All grant, and people in longterm care
in Perth & Kinross have once again received numerous concerts supported by
The Gannochy Trust.
A further donation from the Queensberry House
Trust has ensured that residential and daycare units
in Lothian have been included, and Edinburgh &
Lothians Health Foundation funding has continued
to ensure that people in hospital units across the
whole of Lothian have benefited. Other Trusts
providing generous support include The Plum Trust,
the Hugh & Mary Miller Bequest, The Stafford
Trust, the DWT Cargill Fund, and The Martin
Charitable Trust.

Home in Shetland
We are now in the third year of a three-year
Section 16B grant from the Scottish Government
which is supporting regular concerts at Scottish
mental health units. Anecdotal evidence points to
the clear therapeutic benefit that these sessions can
have as part of activities programmes across the
mental healthcare spectrum. A new development
during the past year has been the introduction of regular jamming sessions
at The Hive, run by The Scottish Association for Mental Health (SAMH)
on the Royal Edinburgh Hospital campus.
SAMH Team Leader Nina Allinson commented:
‘Your musicians have been great at engaging with our patients,
inspiring and giving them the confidence to participate in
our Music Jam.’

Tour of Shetland

and Charlie Gorman on site and in tune
We were thrilled to be able for the
first time to send musicians on an
extended tour of the Shetland Islands
in April thanks to the generous
support of Total E&P UK Limited.
Ten performances were delivered
during the five day visit, reaching
audiences at the Gilbert Bain Hospital
in Lerwick and at nine other care units
including Nordalea in Baltasound,
the first ever MiH concert on the UK’s
most northerly island of Unst. Also on
the agenda was a visit to Total’s gas
installation at Laggan Tormore.

Audiences which have experienced a live performance during the past year include:
MUSIC IN HOSPITALS SCOTLAND · 2014-15
children with acute, chronic or life-limiting
illnesses, or additional support needs
people with mental health issues
The past twelve months has seen a 12% increase
in the number of concerts within mental health
wards across Scotland, thanks in part to continued
funding by the Scottish Government and The
Pixel Fund of live performances in these settings.
The positive impact that regular live music
delivered by skilled and sensitive musicians can
have on people who may be experiencing feelings
of anxiety, isolation and alienation, is frequently
reported upon by healthcare staff. And although
a wide range of different performers and musical
genres can be provided, where possible and
appropriate musicians will make return visits to
certain units so that a rapport with clients based
on friendship and trust can be developed.
Musical performances in paediatric wards and play areas
can immediately brighten the mood of anxious children
and parents alike, and thanks to The MacLennan Trust
more have been made possible. These sessions are always
challenging but MiH musicians are skilled in the special
techniques required to distract and divert young audiences
and carefully planned programmes will include interactive
songs and musical games as well as contemporary pop
items in order to appeal as much to teenagers as to
toddlers. Currently, for children of all ages, the ability to
deliver a favourite track from ‘Frozen’ or the latest Taylor
Swift hit appears to be a must!
48 concerts in paediatric units and special schools
It is amazing to see how live music lifts the spirits
of even children who are very ill. Their parents
seem to relax for a few minutes whilst the music
is playing, and there is a definite reduction in
anxiety levels for every age group.

adults with additional support needs
Care staff at adult resource centres which cater specifically for people with
additional support needs positively welcome the opportunity to host MiH live
music sessions in which their clients generally participate with great enthusiasm.
The special blend of experience, sensitivity and resilience which the musicians bring
to these performances is ideally suited to such audiences and programmes are
carefully compiled both to stimulate and to soothe as the collective mood dictates.
45 concerts in learning disability units and adult resource centres
The patient group have many complex issues such as learning
disabilities, autism, and challenging behaviour, but the musicians
interacted with everyone and were completely unfazed by their issues.
During the concert there was lots of whooping and cheering!

time spent away from the ward in such
a positive atmosphere.

people with neurological conditions
The beneficial effect of live music on people who have had a severe stroke
is widely recognised. But while medical professionals can provide a clinical
explanation, time and again relatives and care staff remark upon what seems
like a miracle when someone who has lost the power of speech is suddenly
able to mouth the words of a familiar song. But whatever the cause it can
provide a huge boost to morale for all concerned and we have even heard of
nursing staff who have been made aware of this phenomenon conversing in
song with their patients! Similarly those people whose motor skills have been
affected can derive therapeutic benefit from being encouraged to clap or tap
in time to the music.
Support from The R S Macdonald Charitable Trust helped ensure that people
with a range of neurological conditions benefited from MiH concerts. There is
increasing recognition of the therapeutic benefit that individuals with these
conditions or with a brain injury can derive from the performance of live music.
A shortened attention span is frequently apparent among audience members in
neurological units and musicians must be well versed in the techniques required
to stimulate interest as well as to soothe and distract. A wide ranging repertoire
embracing musical tastes across the generations is also essential.
30 concerts in neurological units
25 concerts for people recovering from strokes
Their repertoire was varied and appropriate and the residents
remained responsive and alert throughout. The singers interacted
well with their audience and an enjoyable evening was had by all.

The musicians
7
The musicians who present concerts in healthcare
settings are all talented professionals with their
own busy performance and teaching schedules, who
have been carefully selected at audition as much
for their ability to communicate with sensitivity
as for their musical prowess. Music in Hospitals is
extremely fortunate to be able to call upon so many
experienced performers, some of whom in turn help
to mentor those who are new to the work.
The programmes
Where possible there is consultation in advance
with care staff to ensure that programmes are age
appropriate. Ideally service users’ preferences and
any special requests will be passed on to the concerts
team so that they too can be taken into account.
Flexibility is definitely the name of the game, and
while classical performers must be comfortable
delivering Scots traditional and show songs, folk
groups might well find themselves responding
to a request for a classical theme.
Residents and staff play along with ukelele player Pete Baynes

Staff participation
It is clear from the feedback
we receive from all sources that
maximum benefit can be felt
by patients and residents when
healthcare staff get actively
involved. The performers always
encourage people to sing
along and to dance and, even
where some individuals in the
audience are too frail to respond
physically, they can derive great
pleasure from seeing members
of staff taking to the floor.
We greatly appreciate the support

provided an inspiring setting for our
Aberdeen reception last November
to which we welcomed some of

The Universities of Scotland Symphony Orchestra’s performance
of Copland, Elgar and Shostakovich attracted a large audience
to St Cuthbert’s Church in May, raising further funds for Music in

In early July we were delighted to welcome guests from the corporate
and charitable sectors to an informal lunch at our office. It was good
to be able to thank longstanding supporters in person, and to introduce
others to our musicians’ work. It was an opportunity also to launch a
new funding initiative corporate partners: bespoke concerts which
encourages firms to fund a tailor-made concert at a hospital or care
unit of their choosing. The Arunda Wind Trio served up the live music! FRIENDS’ MONTHLY DRAW
Once again warmest thanks are due to the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and its
Chief Executive Dr Krishna Thiagarajan for very kindly providing tickets each month
during the season for whichever MiH Friend is lucky enough to have his or her
name drawn out of the hat. Particularly appreciated is the flexibility which allows
the winner to choose which of

convenient in which to enjoy

Staff changes
We were sorry to say goodbye
to Hannah Ross who left at the
end of April to pursue a freelance
career in music administration.
But before leaving she did
a splendid job in organising
the Shetland tour, her local
knowledge as a native Shetlander
proving invaluable as she
compiled a remarkable itinerary
for the tour in which not a single detail relating to
travel, accommodation, restaurants and parking was left
un-researched. We wish her well in her new venture.
In place of Hannah on the
concerts team we welcomed
Kirstyn Knowles, a music
graduate who previously
worked for the mental health
charity Penumbra. Like Hannah
her main responsibility is tour
organisation and five months
in she already has 33 successful
tours under her belt.
Thank you
As ever we are indebted to our UK Chairman,
Hon Treasurer, Trustees, Committee members, Local
Ambassadors and volunteers, for all they do for Music in
Hospitals – none more so than our indefatigable Scottish
Convenor, Gillian Dinsmore. Warmest thanks to all of
them from everyone on the Forth Street team.

Our patients’ outlook on life is
always improved by the concerts.
