Abstract:
Recent cross-sectional studies in children of most music schools show that there is a continuously increasing development of musculoskeletal symptoms and disorders due to an asymmetry of posture which is given by the kind of the musical instrument played by the pupils. An ergonomic adaptation of music instruments according to body size, but also specific muscular training, a consequent warm up before playing and rigorous time management can help to avoid these overuse or repetitive strain syndromes that often interfere with the ability to play the instrument as usual.
