What was studied
Research on self-reported experience among 22 advanced classical music students in Vienna.
What it contributes
Accounts connect togetherness with interpersonal relationships, musical skills and the immediate setting.
Where the evidence stops
These reports do not measure cardiac or physiological synchrony. A selected advanced-student sample cannot establish the same experience in amateur community bands.
About this review
