Adults with and without a formal musical background are very welcome to take part in our studies.
We are currently recruiting participants for the following studies:

Interactions between Musicians in Ensemble Performances: A Survey
If you are a current student or recent graduate of mdw, we would appreciate your insight in this survey regarding interactions in ensembles. The survey will take only around 5 minutes to complete, and can be done online. Your responses will be valuable in this research, and might help scientists to shed some light on the factors boosting cohesion in music ensembles. To complete the survey, click HERE.
