description

This article reports on a randomized control study of the effects of a Community of Voices choir intervention on the “health, well-being and health care costs of racial/ethnically diverse” adults 60 years and older. Sixty-five (65%) of study participants were non-white. Researchers examined an array of outcomes including “physical, cognitive and psychosocial aspects of health.” Findings suggest intervention group members experienced significant reductions in loneliness and increased interest in life.
