This research centers on the experience of negative self-talk in undergraduate voice majors. The research questions are (1) How prevalent is negative self-talk in individual singers? (2) Why do students experience negative self-talk? (3) How does negative self-talk impact the wellbeing of this population? And (4) Can mindfulness-based meditation serve as an effective intervention in reducing the effects of negative self-talk? To answer these questions, a multiple case study was designed alongside an eight-week mindfulness-based intervention. Five undergraduate student participants were sent an email once a week for eight weeks, which included introductions to mindfulness concepts and audio files of guided meditations, which they were to practice daily. During these eight weeks, each student participated in a series of three interviews and completed questionnaires relating to music performance anxiety, self-efficacy, and mindfulness following "high stakes" performances of their choosing. In Chapter 1 of this dissertation, I present my own experience with negative self-talk in performance, and in Chapter 2, I review the current literature on Music Performance Anxiety (MPA), self-talk, and wellbeing. I present my research design and intervention in Chapter 3 and describe the five participant case studies in Chapter 4. I provide within-case and cross-case analyses in Chapter 5. In the cross-case analysis, four themes emerged: 1) Cognitive manifestations of performance anxiety; 2) Comparison; 3) Over-analyzing; and 4) Increased mindfulness. Following the eight-week intervention, overall awareness around performance and performance process increased, a deeper connection to breath was developed, and greater overall acceptance was gained. Chapter 6 contains a discussion of limitations and future directions for this research. Given the results of this and similar studies, I suggest that music educators consider adding mindfulness practices into their curriculum to enhance both the performance experience and overall wellbeing of student musicians. This intervention took place during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is discussed throughout.
