Songwriting in Dementia
Turtle Song (an English Touring Opera, Royal College of Music and Turtle Key Arts collaboration) is songwriting project for people living with dementia and their caregivers. It encourages artistic and social interaction, a positive outlook through an enjoyable and shared activity, and gives the brain and body a bit of stimulating exercise. Since the first Turtle Song at the Royal College of Music (London) in 2008 it has been introduced in over 15 cities across the UK.
Since 2022, the AM lab has hosted this project in Liverpool.
Over a period of 8 to 10 weeks, our team and a group of undergraduate students
from the Department of Music of the University of Liverpool meet a
group of people living with dementia and their caregivers weekly to
write lyrics and music together. The original songs composed during this period are then performed
in a final sharing/performance. These are incredible opportunities to listen new
music loaded with memories of Liverpool.
