“…In the original quantitative study, all participants completed eight weeks of the group therapeutic singing for a 100% compliance rate and were actively engaged throughout the sessions (Stegemöller et al, 2017a). Adherence to treatment is very important in PD because it is a progressive condition.…”

“…Therefore, we conducted this small study based on previous empirical work about the importance of attending to latent aspects of music therapy interventions as well as our observation of participants' engagement as they took part in our original quantitative GSI study (e.g., Stegemöller et al, 2017aStegemöller et al, , 2017b. The purpose of this descriptive study was to gather the perspectives of 20 adult participants with PD who had previously taken part in a GSI led by credentialed music therapists.…”

“…Four studies assessed the impact of a singing intervention on quality of life. [49][50][51][83][84][85][86]. Of these, Matthews et al [51] used a RCT design compared to a passive music appreciation activity, while Tamplin et al [49][50] used a nonrandomised controlled trial design with various comparators, the limitations of which were discussed above.…”

Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative condition associated with a wide range of motor and non-motor symptoms. There has been increasing interest in the potential benefit of performing arts as a therapeutic medium in PD. While there have been previous reviews, none have considered all performing arts modalities and most have focused on dance. This systematic review examined the potential benefit of all active group-based performing arts interventions for quality of life, functional communication, speech, motor function and cognitive status. Methods: Searches were conducted in February 2020 on five scholarly databases. Supplementary searches were conducted. Included studies were quantitative in design, and assessed the potential benefit of any active group-based performing arts intervention for quality of life, functional communication, speech, motor function or cognitive status in people with PD. Full text papers were eligible for inclusion, as were conference abstracts since January 2018. Screening, data extraction, narrative synthesis and quality assessment were conducted independently by two reviewers. Quality assessment used the SURE checklists. Results: 56 studies were eligible for inclusion in this systematic review, reported in 67 publications. Published from 1989 to 2020, these studies included a total of 1531 people with PD from 12 countries, and covered four broad performing arts modalities: dance, singing, music therapy and theatre. Dance remains the most commonly studied performing arts modality for PD (38 studies), while there were 12 studies on singing interventions, four on music therapy, and only two on theatrical interventions. There was evidence for a beneficial effect of all four performing arts modalities on at least some outcome domains. Conclusions: This is the first systematic review to assess the potential benefit of all active group-based performing arts interventions in PD. The evidence suggests that performing arts may be a useful therapeutic medium in PD. However, a substantial limitation of the evidence base is that no studies compared interventions from different performing arts modalities. Moreover, not all performing arts modalities were assessed for all outcome domains. Therefore it is not currently possible to determine which performing arts modalities are most beneficial for which specific outcomes.
