At the beginning of each choir group, participants will be asked about their favorite songs to help ensure that the music will be appropriate for the participants' interest and cultural background. Each choir group will rehearse once a week for two hours with a short break in the middle for snacks for a total of 16 consecutive weeks. The choir rehearsals will follow a general routine, beginning with announcements and warm-ups, work on the repertoire, a break, additional work on the repertoire in sections, and a short group practice at the end. Participants will also be given at-home activities, in the form of pre-recorded videos and music theory exercises to complete outside of class for an estimated 1.5 hours per week.",[13],"Behavioral: Choir",{"label":15,"type":16,"description":17,"interventionNames":18},"Music Listening","ACTIVE_COMPARATOR","Over the course of 16-weeks, the group will meet for two hours per week to talk about a set of musical recordings. Recorded music will be previously assigned and provided as a playlist via a web platform to track the time duration of engagement. Regular attendance will be required. The discussion group will meet as a full group each week to listen to a subset of that week's recordings, with a guided and brief discussion after each of the six selected songs. The group will then pause for a brief break and will divide into four smaller discussion groups where a volunteer facilitator from that group would guide a discussion about the selected music, to include personal reflections, its cultural context, and ideas around societal impacts.",[19],"Behavioral: Group Music Listening",[21,27],{"type":22,"name":9,"description":23,"armGroupLabels":24,"otherNames":25},"BEHAVIORAL","A choir for older adults is a musical\u002Fsinging ensemble composed of individuals aged 65 and above.
