# Musical togetherness The experience of social connection and pleasure that arises from making music together (Kulset & Halle, 2020), understood by Bishop (2024) not as a by-product of the music but as something participants actively co-create, through sound, through movement, and through watching one another. *See also* [[Musicking]] ## References - Ansdell, G.
