Several researchers have studied the effects of music on
human behaviour, but no research has specifically studied
the beneficial effects of peak experiences of music on the
subjective well being of the people. In the present crosscultural qualitative study, interviews of six white British
and six Pakistani participants were recorded on the basis
of a semi-structured interview to obtain detailed
information about their peak experience they had with
music. On the basis of the grounded theory the effects
that were found common between the peak musical
experiences of the two ethnic groups were grouped into
ten broad themes, namely: relaxation, enjoyment,
confidence/morale boosting, recall, therapy, absorption,
expression of feelings, improved performance,
physiological reaction, and realization. As most of these
effects are positive in nature so it can be concluded that
these may significantly contribute to their subjective well
being.
