The Worlds in Collision conference will bring together musicians, scientists and military personnel to explore how music can help soldiers overcome war trauma.
The event, which takes place on 28-29 June and is organised by charity The Musical Brain, will see panel sessions discussing the relationship between art and war, the responses of artists to post-traumatic stress and whether creativity can be a form of therapy.
Speakers over the two days will include Karen Diamond, head music therapist, Northern Ireland Music Therapy Trust, Nigel Osborne, composer and pioneer in the use of music therapy and international pianist Alberto Portugheis.
The days are titled The Application of Music to the Trauma of War and The Response of Music to the Experiences of War. The second day will conclude with a concert by The Royal Artillery Band featuring tenor Adrian Thompson.
