Music interventions have become a popular treatment option to be used alongside medicinal treatment for many chronic conditions including Alzheimer's disease. Healthcare providers and researchers have found that when patients who have chronic conditions engage with music that is patients' preference or most familiar to patients, the patients display positive changes in mood regulation and thinking overall. The investigators are trying to understand to what extent these music interventions could be useful for patients with Alzheimer's disease and for which populations the intervention is more effective for. To do this, the investigators are looking to recruit participants with a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease to complete a four (4) week personalized music intervention where patients listen to a one-hour playlist created from patients' described preferences and songs.
