Musicians' Health<br />
in Practice<br />
Basics, Prevention, Exercises<br />
The co-authors of the book include Dr. Alexandra<br />
Türk-Espitalier, a trained musician and<br />
senior lecturer at the University of Music and<br />
Performing Arts in Vienna, as well as Prof. Dr.<br />
Bernhard Richter, singer, laryngologist, professor<br />
of music medicine and head of the<br />
renowned Freiburg Institute for Musicians'<br />
Medicine (FIM).<br />
Experienced musicians know their body's<br />
warning signs: a slight tension headache,<br />
dizziness, and joint pain are all sure signs<br />
that music has become more important to<br />
them than their health. The reasons for medical<br />
problems with musicians and singers can<br />
be manifold. Stress and tension before the<br />
concert, a high noise level in the orchestra pit<br />
or incorrect posture while practicing each day<br />
are just some of the possible factors.<br />
Background knowledge about the physical<br />
and psychological fundamentals of healthy<br />
music-making helps to find the causes of<br />
one's symptoms and to take appropriate<br />
countermeasures.<br />
• valuable tips and concise information<br />
for professional and amateur musicians,<br />
music students, orchestral musicians,<br />
conductors, music teachers, and<br />
singers<br />
• instrument-specific risks and preventive<br />
exercises for pianists, wind players,<br />
strings, percussionists, and other<br />
musicians<br />
• how to deal with stage fright, workrelated<br />
stress and emotions<br />
• healthy practicing and the alleviation of<br />
already existing health problems<br />
