Researchers study impact of singing on wellbeing

More than 300 people have taken part in an experiment to discover if singing can improve mental health and wellbeing.

Researchers invited people to take part in Sing for Happiness which saw participants take part in choir sessions where data on mood was collected, culminating in a festive performance.

The study, run by St George’s music venue in Bristol and the University of the West of England (UWE) in the run up to Christmas aimed to build on the findings of a similar project in the summer.

John Neugebauer said he had a “joyful” experience by taking part and created “instant bonds” with fellow singers.
