  • of the following criteria:
  • - Must be 18 years or older
  • - Subjects in the sub-acute group have experienced a supratentorial stroke (a
  • first and only stroke) between 2 weeks and up to 6 months before enrollment.
  • Subjects in the chronic stroke group have experienced a stroke of the middle
  • cerebral artery (MCA) (a first and only stroke) of the middle cerebral artery
  • (MCA) between 6 and 36 months at the time of enrollment, and residual
  • upper-limb impairment, indicated by a more homogenous sample for MRI
  • comparisons.
  • - Subjects in the sub-acute phase of stroke will have a referral for a paretic
  • upper limb, i.e. partial loss of the capacity to carry out a voluntary upper
  • limb movement and/or difficulty with attention, i.e. they are easily
  • distractible or unable to focus on a specific task in the presence of competing
  • information, or complain of decline in attention. Subjects in the chronic phase
  • of stroke must all have a referral for a paretic upper-limb, with or without
  • difficulty with attention.
  • -Subjects must be able to receive music therapy for a minimum of two sessions
  • per week, for a total of 9 (6 at minimum) sessions over an average of 5 weeks
  • (minimum two, maximum 8). For the subacute group the frequency of sessions is

  • Medical Research Scale (MRC) for muscle strength.
  • - Severe behavioural and/or cognitive problems (a score <24 for the chronic
  • group, or <21 for the subacute group on the Mini-mental state examination;
  • MMSE) that prevent a participant from understanding instructions or being able
  • to participate in music therapy sessions, which will be confirmed as necessary
  • by the treating physician.
  • - Severe communication problems, e.g., aphasia and/or apraxia of speech, will
  • be confirmed by the treating physician.

  • will be excluded from the study, to qualify for MRI scanning:
  • - Participants who have pacemakers, brain stimulators, dental implants or
  • metallic braces, aneurysm clips (metal clips on the wall of a large artery),
  • metallic prostheses (including metal pins and rods, heart valves, and cochlear
