Rosemarie Tüpker (born February 15, 1952 in Korschenbroich ) is a German music therapist and musicologist .

life and work

Tüpker first studied piano and drums at the Cologne University of Music and then psychology , philosophy and musicology with a direct graduation from the University of Cologne . While she was still studying, she took part in the first training for music therapists (mentoring course for music therapy Herdecke) from 1978 to 1980 and then worked in inpatient psychotherapeutic care.

She is a student of Wilhelm Salber and Jobst Fricke and co-founder of the Institute for Music Therapy and Morphology (IMM) together with Eckhard Weymann , Tilmann Weber and Frank Grootaers, which emerged from the music therapy and morphology research group and initiated seminars and further training in morphology. Morphological music therapy sees itself as a depth psychological and art-analogous view of music therapeutic processes, without claiming to have its own treatment method. The research group developed concepts for the analysis of music therapy improvisations and treatment processes.

From 1990 to 2017 Tüpker headed the music therapy diploma course and the clinical music therapy master's course at the Westphalian Wilhelms University in Münster . Since 2005 she has been habilitated with the venia legendi music in rehabilitation and therapy . She has been retired since autumn 2017. She continues to oversee the music therapy doctoral program at the University of Münster.

The main research areas are music in fairy tales, qualitative research methods in artistic therapies, and topics in music therapy and music psychology from a morphological and psychoanalytic perspective.

In the work Musik im Märchen , published in 2011 , Tüpker presented the results of more than ten years of research on the occurrence and meaning of music in European folk tales . In the process, cultural-historical, musicological and psychological questions were examined by comparing over three hundred fairy tales. In addition to statements about the musical instruments used , the perception of music as a profession, different fairy tale traditions, typical game situations and the gender issue , a typification of the motifs was presented, which was developed from the textual material of the fairy tale using content analysis . The types found are named as: music as externally and internally moving, creation of a spiritual space, music as connecting two worlds, music as the foreign, music as desired, music and healing, music transformed, music as a witness, music and identity . At the same time, references to today's understanding of music are made. A more in-depth psychological analysis is devoted to Grimm's fairy tale: The little donkey and two fairy tales of the Sinti and Roma : The creation of the violin and The son fights against the father . The studies show the diversity of the concept of music in fairy tales and the clear traces of cultural and historical changes. The final register of the 329 fairy tales examined represents the most comprehensive collection of European fairy tales in which music occurs to date. The theoretical background of the investigation was formed by Wilhelm Salber's psychological morphology and psychoanalysis according to Sigmund Freud and Carl Gustav Jung , as well as the more recent psychoanalytic concepts of developmental psychology , self psychology and cultural theory .
