Song Materials and Levels The song materials selected for this research will be sourced from copyrighted compositions under UM Centre of Innovation and Enterprise (UMCIE). This maximizes the utilization of readily available resources and serves as a platform for promoting the original works of UM lecturers. The songs are organised into three difficulty levels, with approximately five songs per level. Songs within each level have equivalent rhythmic and cognitive demands, allowing variation without altering task difficulty.\n2. Baseline Assessment for Music Therapy Participants will undergo an initial level assessment conducted at the hospital by the trained music therapist. If travel is not feasible, level assessment is conducted at the participant's home.

While existing rehabilitation options exist, there's a need for innovative, accessible, and patient-centered solutions. Research suggests music can engage multiple brain networks associated with sensory and motor processes, cognition, and affective regulation, potentially enhancing cognitive functions like attention and processing speed as well. Home-based interventions have also demonstrated positive impacts on rehabilitation adherence and outcomes.
