A worldwide survey shows the positive influence of music on mental health, particularly in the pandemic.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A new global study by the IFPI has overwhelmingly proved the benefits of music on mental health<\/a> \u2013 something that has been especially noticeable over the past year. As a global catastrophe grew, thousands of isolated people turned to music<\/a> to help get through unfamiliar and overwhelming pandemic restrictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Engaging with Music 2021<\/em> survey<\/a> contacted 43,000 music fans from 21 countries around the world and looked at factors like listening habits and most popular music genres<\/a> alongside music’s effect on wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do the results tell us? Three quarters of those surveyed agreed that music \u201cprovided a sense of normality,\u201d which was clearly welcome in the year of the coronavirus pandemic. A similarly massive 80% said music helped their emotional wellbeing<\/a> \u2013 and from respondents in India the figure was 97%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

87% of respondents reported that music gave them \u201cenjoyment and happiness.\u201d Teens unable to be at school in person were especially grateful for the power of music during the pandemic<\/a>, with 85% of 16\u201319-year-olds saying it had a positive impact on their wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And at a time when gigs <\/a>were being cancelled and rescheduled around the world, those aged 16-19 still managed to connect with their favourite artists, with 68% of the teenagers surveyed saying new releases<\/a> had helped them get through the turbulent time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chief Execute of the IFPI, Frances Moore, said: \u201cMusic <\/a>has provided fans with comfort and healing through these challenging times. Engaging with Music<\/em> reflects music\u2019s powerful contribution to emotional wellbeing. Younger fans in particular acknowledged the supportive role that music plays in their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021 the accessibility of music streaming became more essential than ever, and three quarters of people found time to still listen to music <\/a>as a familiar constant despite their new routine. 63% found one positive during COVID restrictions was finding time to discover some new favourite artists<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The irony of the findings is that over the last 18 months whilst musicians were struggling from isolation and a serious loss of income, simultaneously listeners around the world were finding comfort from their music<\/a>. It still continues to be a lighthouse helping the world through the pandemic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
