In Italy a new experience of music medicine called “The Music Givers” is spreading among Oncology Units; it aims to organise weekly live concerts (length 45–60 min) followed by a buffet. Purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effect of the format of The Music Givers on cancer in‐patients' anxiety. State‐Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI‐Y) was administered to 111 in‐patients before and after the concerts. After the concerts we observed a 3.87 point decrease in state anxiety (p < .001) and statistically significant differences in most of the domains assessed by STAI‐Y. These results invite a reflection on the importance of offering to inpatients events such as live music concerts, in order to improve their psychological condition during hospitalisation.
