Theme 2 explored aspects including the {"}denial and taboo surrounding physical and mental health issues among musicians{"}, {"}the importance of prevention{"}, and an antithesis: {"}pain and suffering driving creativity{"}. Theme 3 addressed the {"}mental role of music in ordinary and extraordinary life{"} as well as {"}music's ability to enable self-conditioning{"}. Lastly, Theme 4 examined the role of music in {"}cultural self-identification{"} and {"}development and education for children{"}. Throughout the interviews, participants expressed a lack of knowledge and awareness regarding interdisciplinary research and the fields of music and medicine. Our findings affirm the significance of music therapy and performing arts medicine as well as the broader relationship between music and medicine.
