Shall we dance? An exploration of the perceived benefits of dancing on well-being (2010, background): “People have been reducing their active engagement with music, through singing or dancing, while limiting their musical enjoyment to the role of passive consumers (e.g. Bailey & Davidson, 2005).”

It’s better together: The psychological benefits of singing in a choir (2016, background): “…a number of studies have found evidence to suggest that choral singing might lead to significant improvements in psychological well-being (e.g., Bailey & Davidson, 2003a, 2005; Beck, Cesario, Yousefi, & Enamoto, 2000; Clift, Hancox, et al., 2010; Cohen et al., 2006; Grape, Sandgren, Hansson,…”
Emotion regulation strategy mediates both positive and negative relationships between music uses and well-being (2014, background): “…in the current study, there is clearly a multitude of factors that could be responsible for this, such as developing a sense of accomplishment, achieving meaning out of one’s performance, gaining confidence, self-discipline, and self-worth (Bailey & Davidson, 2005; Hallam & Prince, 2000).”
Choral singing and psychological wellbeing: Quantitative and qualitative findings from English choirs in a cross-national survey (2010, background): “interview and focus group techniques with diverse samples have shown that singers commonly report a wide range of social, psychological, spiritual and health benefits associated with singing (e.g. Bailey & Davidson 2005; Silber 2005).”
The significance of choral singing for sustaining psychological wellbeing: findings from a survey of choristers in England, Australia and Germany (2010, background): “This analysis identified descriptions of at least six generative mechanisms linking choral singing with wellbeing and health, most of which have been previously identified in the research literature (e.g. Bailey and Davidson, 2003, 2005 , refer to improvements in mood and the role of distraction).”
The impact of music festival attendance on young people’s psychological and social well-being (2011, background): “…such a popular form of entertainment, more research is needed to understand the nature and outcomes of music festival experiences, and to explore the extent to which the health and well-being benefits of engagement in music (Bailey & Davidson, 2005) might also apply in the music festival context.”
Emotion, engagement and meaning in strong experiences of music performance (2012, background): “Becoming a performer is a somewhat separate achievement (Davidson, 2002), with a fundamental goal of communication to an audience (Bailey & Davidson, 2005; Hargreaves, MacDonald, & Miell, 2005).”
Benefits of choral singing for social and mental wellbeing: qualitative findings from a cross‐national survey of choir members (2012, background): “Choral singers have also reported social benefits of singing, including building friendships, improving bonding and co-operation, and creating a sense of belonging (Clift and Hancox, 2001; Bailey and Davidson, 2002, 2005; Cohen et al., 2006, 2007; Silber, 2005).”
