Music-making Resource for People living with Dementia

This is a Claimed service
Delivered by: Scottish Chamber Orchestra This is a Claimed organisation
Last updated: 26/08/2025

Our music-making project for people living with dementia and their carers, ReConnect, brings people together through music to improve wellbeing and quality of life, whatever a person's age or stage.


You do not need any musical skill or experience to take part! In these videos, we aim to create a sense of connection and intimacy.


You can work through the videos in order to enjoy a balance of relaxing and active experiences, or simply select one or two that suit you right now. Our ReConnect videos offer lots of ways to engage and the playlist includes:


  • well-known music, easy to recognise
  • gentle, relaxing music
  • energising music
  • music to play along with
  • music made up on the spot, to play or move with
  • music for listening
  • a welcome and goodbye song (particularly useful for group leaders)


The resource is available online or you can order a free copy of the DVD on our website.
