Résumé

A study was conducted, utilizing measurements of salivary immunoglobulin A (sIgA) and cortisol to investigate the effects of active and passive participation in music. Researchers found a significant increase in sIgA between pre and post group singing, following two practices and a performance. It was also found that cortisol significantly decreased after practices, but significantly increased following the performance. A significant increase in sIgA between pre and post group singing was found without any increase for pre and post listening, while conduct research with members of a professional choir. A significant decrease in cortisol was also found between pre and post listening without any increase between pre and post singing. The members of three choirs were asked to participate in a survey, investigating effects of experiences of music. The items related to the 3 levels of participation were mixed with other items of choir practices.
