  When a programme runs for years, and sometimes decades, it is a proven mark of quality and popularity that would be hard to dispel. 
  The situation comedy ‘Fibber McGee and Molly’ ran from 1935 to 1959 on the NBC Red network and was often the most popular and eagerly awaited show of the week.  
  Fibber was a story-teller prone to mad-cap schemes who was gently eased back into reality by his ever-loving wife Molly.  
  The comic duo, played by the real-life married couple of Jim & Marion Jordan, lived in the working-class community of Wistful Vista.  Here, they played out their adventures amongst neighbours, friends and acquaintances.  Comedy and life came together in an almost perfect blend of American life.  
  79 Wistful Vista was their home visited weekly by an audience that sought refuge from a long line of exhausting real-life events that stretched from the Great Depression, World War 2, Korea and even Rock N Roll.  Here they could find cheer and comfort in the middle of their struggles.  
  With it’s lovable cast, it’s recurring characters, appealing storylines and interludes of music, it was a world that the airwaves and audiences loved.

  Music Therapy - Healing through...

  Music has been a part of human culture since the dawn of time. Its rhythms, melodies, and harmonies have not only served as a form of artistic expression but have also played a vital role in rituals, ceremonies, and healing practices across different cultures. This chapter provides an overview of music therapy as a clinical and evidence-based practice, exploring its origins, fundamental principles, and the diverse ways in which it benefits individuals in both physical and mental health settings. 
  Music therapy's roots can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where music was used as a tool for healing and communication. In Greek and Roman cultures, philosophers like Pythagoras and Plato discussed the healing power of music and its influence on emotions and the body. Indigenous cultures worldwide have long used music, drumming, and chanting as part of their spiritual and healing traditions, recognizing its ability to alter states of consciousness and promote well-being. 
    
  The modern field of music therapy emerged in the mid-20th century, following World War II. During this time, musicians began to visit hospitals to play for soldiers suffering from physical and emotional trauma. Observing the profound effects that music had on the soldiers’ recovery, doctors and nurses started to incorporate music into their treatment plans. The positive impact on patients led to the formalization of music therapy as a profession, with the first academic programs and certification processes being established in the 1950s and 1960s.
