o:232 Impact of Yoga practice on flute performance en Masterarbeit Masterstudium Flöte RA 066 722 ABSTRACT: The impact of Yoga practice on flute performance was examined to ascertain the suitability of inclusion in the training for success in flute performance. The existing literature was examined on a number of issues especially: musician and flute player’s health, posture, injuries and their prevention, and performance anxiety; playing fatigue, mental training, and issues related to audition and competition preparation. Furthermore, literature on the use of Yoga in training for peak performance, developing awareness, and current research on the use of Yoga as an intervention for disorders in Musicians was explored. Qualitative data was collected through interviews with three professional flutists with an established Yoga practice, questioning if and how their Yoga practice impacted their flute performance. It was found that Yoga practice can make a positive impact on flute performance, with the research complementing and satisfying issues and recommendations raised in the literature. The research recommends a short but frequent Yoga practice for improved performance. 2019-04-16T11:29:53.517Z 44 no 46 Latham Horn 61800132 2019-04-02 1552167 Christian Frauscher Anton Bruckner Privatuniversität 1552167 Johanna Dömötör Anton Bruckner Privatuniversität application/pdf 900103 https://phaidra.bruckneruni.at/o:232 no yes 1 70 1552258 76 Seiten
