Welcome Luke Holmes: Mewsic's First Permanent Music Therapist!



"I am extremely excited in joining the Mewsic Therapy in Hospitals Program and hope to further music therapy application, publicity, knowledge and research within India and the world. I hope to explore the role in which traditional and contemporary Indian music can play within music therapy, and look forward to experiencing India’s rich and diverse cultures first-hand."

Thanks to a partnership with the Rotary Club of Mumbai Nariman Point, we will be kicking off with Mewsic's first permanent music therapist, Luke Holmes, by the start of the New Year!

Luke is an experienced and passionate Australian music therapist and educator with a keen interest in the application of music therapy interventions for children. He holds a Bachelor of Music / Bachelor of Teaching from the University of New England, a Masters in Music Therapy from the University of Queensland, and is due to complete a Master’s in Education Studies as well as a Diploma in Cognitive and Developmental Psychology from the University of Queensland in early 2014. 

Luke has experience working in community, health, and both main stream and special education settings. He has been the conductor for the University of New England’s Earle Page choir, and is a Neurological Music Therapy Fellow with the R.F Unkefer Academy for Neurological Music Therapy at Colorado State University (USA).
