Objective: Musician’s dystonia is characterized by loss of voluntary motor control in extensively trained
movements on an instrument. The condition is difficult to treat. This retrospective study reports on the
interventions received by a homogeneous cohort of pianists with musician’s dystonia and the subjective
and objective changes reported in task performance.
Methods: This is a retrospective descriptive study. Fifty four pianists with musician’s dystonia who had
received care in a Movement Disorders Clinic completed a self report questionnaire regarding type and
effectiveness of treatment received over the last 4 years. Pianists’ fine motor control was assessed
objectively by measuring the temporal regularity of their scale playing.
Results: Nearly all patients (98.0%) reported deficits in motor tasks other than musical playing. Half of the
patients were taking medications (Botulinum toxin (53%), Trihexyphenidyl (51%)). Subjects reported
participating in multiple therapies: retraining (87%), hand therapy (42%), relaxation techniques (38%),
physiotherapy (30%), psychotherapy (23%), acupuncture (21%) and body techniques (21%). Self-reported
improvements in motor performance were reported by 81.5% of the subjects with 5.6% reporting a
complete recovery. Objective gains in task-specific motor performance were documented in 42.9% of the
subjects (with deterioration in 4.8%). Retraining therapy, relaxation techniques and change in teacher
explained 52% of the variance in subjective outcomes.
Conclusions: Musician’s dystonia not only interferes with musical performance but other fine motor
tasks. Objectively, approximately 50% of patients improved task performance following participation in a
variety of intervention strategies, but subjectively, 80% of subjects reported improvement.

1. Introduction
Musician’s dystonia can be a disabling impairment to a performance career. Focal dystonia in musicians, also known as musician’s cramp or musician’s dystonia (MD), is a task-specific
movement disorder that manifests itself as a loss of voluntary
motor control of extensively trained movements while a musician
is playing a musical instrument [1,2].
Available therapies to date include local injections with botulinum toxin (BTX-A) [3,4], anticholinergic drugs such as Trihexyphenidyl [5,6], ergonomic changes at the instrument [7],
immobilization [8], physiotherapy [9] and several behavioral therapies [10], such as the sensory-motor-retuning therapy [10],

sensory training therapy [10e13], learning based sensorimotor
training and pedagogical retraining (for a review of the nonmedical therapies see Ref. [13]).
Pedagogical retraining therapy (see supplementary video) has
gained broad acceptance in the treatment of MD. It is non-invasive
and remains close to musician’s instrumental practice [14]. The
basic principle of the retraining for pianists with MD is a three-step
procedure [15]. In the initial “deprogramming” phase, incorrect
movements at the instrument are identified and a “correct” posture
of the hand is established using simple exercises. The second phase
aims at strengthening of weak muscle groups and building a representation of simple movements. The third part of the retraining
course starts when muscular equilibrium is established and exaggerated involuntary movements are controlled. During this phase,
the basic constituents of piano technique are re-established.
The retraining process is guided by setting objectives and
providing visual feedback from unusual perspectives using digital

cameras [15]. This progressive, neural adaptive foundation of
training is similar to sensory, motor and sensorimotor training
strategies integrated in physical, occupational and hand therapy.

Previous studies have focused on pharmaceutical treatments
such as BTX-A. One recent study on a cohort of 144 musicians [5]
revealed improvement in roughly half of the patient population
following BTX-A injections. The subject pool included musicians of
different musical instrument families and there was no objective
measure of symptom development. Another long-term follow-up
study on patients with focal hand dystonia [3] again documented
no objective measurements.
The present study focused on a homogeneous group of musicians (pianists) with MD who participated in a variety of intervention strategies. The aim of this retrospective study was to
outline the type of interventions received for the treatment of their
MD; evaluate subjective estimates of the effectiveness of the
treatment received over 4 years; document changes in objective
measurements of motor performance (temporal evenness of patients’ scale playing); correlate subjective and objective scores
regarding effectiveness as well as correlate predictive variables
with subjective and objective improvement [16]; and determine
whether patients had motor control problems with tasks other
than musical performance.

in two hands; we took the maximum score of the two hands and calculated our
analysis with that). A high value of this quantity means that playing is rather uneven
(as would be typical for dystonia patients). A low value means higher precision, that
is, better motor control [16].
2.3. Questionnaire
The questionnaire was an extended version of the questionnaire used in a
previous study [5]. It covered the following categories:
e Severity of dystonia symptoms e Patients were asked to summarize the development of their dystonia on the following scale: no more impairment,
considerable improvement, moderate improvement, minimal improvement,
no change, or deterioration. This is referred to as a categorical improvement
rating. Additionally, patients were also asked to rate their playing capacity
before therapy (retrospectively) as well as their playing capacity today (at fillout) as a percentage of their playing capacity before they experienced any
problems. We will call this the percentual improvement rating.
e Motor deficits in other tasks e Each individual was asked to rate task specific
problems on target tasks other than musical performance (e.g. hand writing,
computer keyboard typing, using cutlery). The following ordinal scale as used
to rate the severity of the impairment: no impairment, light impairment,
moderate impairment, strong impairment.
e Therapies received e Each individual was asked to report which therapies they
had participated in (see supplementary materials).
e Dosage and effectiveness of therapy e Each individual was asked to indicate
the number of months they received each therapy and then to rate the effectiveness on a scale from 1 (very good) to 6 (bad).
Most of the patients returned the form by mail to our institute, whereas 6 out of
54 (11%) brought them back during the next appointment.
2. Methods
2.1. Patients
We contacted all 73 keyboard instrumentalists who had been diagnosed with
focal dystonia by the author EA and enrolled in the treatment program of our
Institute between 2001 and 2008. At the time of their first visit, their scale playing
regularity was measured as a baseline (details below). Then, between January 2008
and January 2009, all of the patients with MD who attended the clinic between 2001
and 2007 received a comprehensive questionnaire requesting information about
their response to treatment. From these, 54 responded to our questionnaires. The
last questionnaire was collected in March 2009. Only 22 subjects participated in a
second scale playing measurement, which had to be performed within three months
of filling in the questionnaire.
Between the first visit and the receipt of the questionnaire, the patients were
participating in an open-label trial undergoing therapies initiated by the treating
physicians or self-selected by the musician. Thus either single or multiple therapies
could be experienced in parallel. The time of filling out the questionnaire was
termed the “fill out” or follow-up date. Only those patients returning the questionnaire became participants in the study.
Due to the retrospective nature of this study, patients were informed about the
study at the time of the follow-up and anonymity of the data handling was guaranteed. The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical guidelines Standard
Protocol Approvals, Registrations, and Patient Consents of the Hannover Medical
University.
2.2. Piano scale playing
For each subject, scale playing regularity was measured at baseline (first visit)
and again within an interval of three months before or after the questionnaires were
filled out. Patients were invited to play two-octave C-major scales that were
recorded on a MIDI piano for analysis using a validated protocol published earlier
[16]. In brief, the patients played a total of 10e15 ascending and descending scales
with their affected hand, interleaved, accompanied by a metronome at 120 BPM and
playing four notes per beat. Three patients could not play at this tempo. These patients played at 80 or 40 BPM. As a consequence of the non-linear dependence of
unevenness on tempo, adjustment factors (between 0.52 and 0.89) obtained from
healthy pianists’ scale playing performance at different tempi (unpublished data)
were applied. One pianist was eliminated from the objective (scale playing) analysis
because the first and follow-up measurements were made with different tempi. In
offline analysis, the errorfree sequences of ascending and descending scales were
extracted and the analysis was performed similar to the procedure published previously in Ref. [16]: For each scale run, we calculated the standard deviation of the
inter-onset-intervals (IOIs) of the notes and computed the median of these for
ascending and descending scales separately. Then the maximum of these two
numbers was taken, yielding a single value (except for one patient that was affected
2.4. Medical file
For each subject who returned the questionnaire, the medical record was
reviewed to obtain information about medication management of the dystonia and
to fill in missing data from the questionnaire in terms of the history or the intervention. The following details were extracted from the medical record: (a) which
hand was affected by dystonia and (b) how long the patient received BTX-A/
Trihexyphenidyl treatment and the dosage.
2.5. Statistical analyses e piano scale measurement
We calculated two tests to assess fine motor control objectively. To establish
which patients improved significantly, we took the data from each pianist in turn
and submitted the standard-deviations of the most impaired playing direction
(ascending or descending) for the scales played at first-visit and at fill-out to a
Bonferroni-corrected ManneWhitney Test (alpha ¼ 0.05/22). Further, we calculated
improvement in the group as a whole by comparing the medians of the standard
deviations for each pianist before and after treatment with the Wilcoxon signedrank test.
Due to organizational problems, not all patients could be recorded playing scales
reasonably close in time to fill-out. We therefore chose to include in our objective
analysis only those patients of whom we had a scale measurement within plus/
minus 3 months of questionnaire fill-out and (see above) who had not undergone
treatment with BTX in between. Twenty-two pianists (33% of our total population)
fulfilled this criterion.
2.6. Statistical analyses e questionnaire data
Group comparisons were performed using non-parametric statistics (Wilcoxon
rank sum test or ManneWhitney U). We report the corresponding effect sizes (r).
Population statistics are reported as averages (with standard deviation in parentheses), unless specified otherwise. Because nine group comparisons were planned,
we used alpha ¼ 0.05/9 ¼ 0.0056.
An ordinal logistic regression was computed with categorical improvement
rating as dependent variable. Predictors were age, duration of dystonia symptoms
at fill-out, follow-up interval, therapies in which the patient participated (0 or 1).
For retraining therapy we used the following scale: 0) did not undergo therapy, 1)
started retraining, but interrupted, 2) is undergoing treatment until fill-out, 3)
completed the retraining therapy program (we will refer to this latter variable as
retraining status). We used the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) as downward
variable selection mechanism to avoid collinearity, as implemented in the stepAIC
function in the MASS package. First, the optimal set of predictors was determined
(i.e. therapies) and then the regressions were calculated with these predictors.

3. Results
3.1. Description of the population
Our patients (73.6% male) were on average 44.8 (12.9) years
of age. The onset of dystonia symptoms was at 34.6 (11.4) years.
The participants were self-classified as left-handed (11.3%),
right-handed (83.0%) or ambidextrous (5.7%). The hand affected by
dystonia was left (17.0%), right (79.3%) or both (3.8%). The main
instrument was piano (88.7%), organ (9.4%) or accordion (1.9%). The
time between first-visit and fill-out was on average 51.6 (25.4)
months. At fill-out the patients had suffered 10.2 (7.8) years
from MD.
3.2. Participation in therapies
The patients had received the following treatments: retraining
(87%), Botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) (53%), Trihexyphenidyl (Artane(R)
or Parkopan(R)) (51%), hand therapy (42%), relaxation techniques
(38%), physiotherapy (30%), psychotherapy (23%), acupuncture (21%),
body techniques (e.g. Feldenkrais, Alexander technique, Dispokinesis) (21%). Some pianists changed teachers (9%). For those who
were treated with Trihexyphenidyl, we consulted the medical records to find they received 2.7(1.6) g cumulatively, over the duration of 21.5(17.8) months, corresponding to on average 5.02(3.7)
mg per day. For those treated with BTX-A, we calculated a standardized cumulative dosis as follows: Botox(R) or Xeomin(R) units
counted as one unit and 4 units of Dysport(R) counted as one unit, so
as to obtain mean equivalent doses published in several review papers [17e20]. Patients in our cohort received an average cumulative
dosis of 100.6(100) such units in 4.1(3.0) injection sessions over
the duration of 25.4(21.8) months, corresponding to an average of
24.1(17.6) units per session. Pianists participating in retraining
therapy received an average of 41.0(38.9) sessions over a period of
38.2(29.5) months, which were 1.4(1.1) sessions per month.
3.3. Subjective report of improvement
Patients reported minor to considerable improvement (81.5%).
Some (5.6%) even indicated they were no longer impaired (see
Fig. 1). Participants reported an improvement (percentage of playing capacity at fill-out minus percentage at first visit) of þ31%
(median 25%, SD 28%). This gain was significant (Wilcoxon signedrank test V ¼ 44, z ¼ 5.46, p < 0.0001, r ¼ 0.74) (Fig. 2). In a few
cases this improvement was to well above their playing level before
dystonia onset.

(N ¼ 54). Self-reported playing capacity before treatment and at fill-out. Values are
given subjectively as a percentage of playing capacity before dystonia. The shaded
purple area shows the Gaussian kernel-density estimation f(a,b) of the ratings in order
to correct for overlapping points, which is calculated as follows: f(a,b) ¼ Si
exp(0.0045*((aai)2þ(bbi)2)), where ai and bi are the subjective playing rating (in
%) of patient i at first visit (a) and fill-out (b). (For interpretation of the references to
color in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the web version of this article.)
3.4. Objective measure: scale playing evenness
Patients’ scale playing tended to become more regular at the fillout visit (M ¼ 18.2 ms, median ¼ 17.5, SD ¼ 5.6) relative to the
baseline measurement (M ¼ 20.3 ms, median ¼ 17.7, SD ¼ 7.1).
However, this gain was only a statistical trend (Wilcoxon signedrank V ¼ 178, z ¼ 1.67, p ¼ 0.098, r ¼ 0.36). The objective
improvement correlated with the categorical improvement rating
(Spearman r ¼ 0.59, p ¼ 0.003). Single-participant ManneWhitney
tests revealed that 43% of the pianists had improved significantly at
fill-out, whereas 4.8% significantly deteriorated and 52% showed no
change (Fig. 1).

standard error of the mean. Only those therapies are displayed in which more than 25%
of our subjects participated to ensure that a sufficient body of data was available.
Significance: ***p < 0.001.
3.5. Self-report of effectiveness of therapies
The mean ratings for the individual therapies are shown in
Fig. 3. Retraining therapy was rated more effective than Trihexyphenidyl (ManneWhitney Test, W ¼ 261.5, z ¼ 3.57, p ¼ 0.0004,
r ¼ 0.49) or physiotherapy (W ¼ 83, z ¼ 3.97, p < 0.0001, r ¼ 0.54).
Ratings are altogether similar for the pharmacological treatments
and hand therapy as well as relaxation techniques. Physiotherapy is
rated as less effective than, for example, BTX-A (W ¼ 277.5, z ¼ 3.27,
p ¼ 0.001, r ¼ 0.45).
3.6. Impairment in other motor tasks
Four subjects did not fill out this section and could not be
included. Ninety-eight percent of patients reported at least a minor
deficit in at least one motor task other than playing their musical
instrument. This was true both before and after participating in
intervention, with 24.0% of the patients reporting at least one severe secondary impairment before therapy compared to 12.0% afterwards. This difference was not significant (Fisher Exact Test,
p ¼ 0.19, n.s.).
The main motor impairments were in using a computer
keyboard (44.5%) and hand writing (38.9%). There was only a trend
for these numbers to decrease at fill-out (31.5% for keyboard, Fisher
Exact Test, p ¼ 0.01, not significant; and 27.8% for hand writing,
p ¼ .087, not significant).
3.7. Therapy participation as predictor of subjective improvement
Ordinal logistic regression using the predictors follow-up interval, retraining status, relaxation techniques, psychotherapy,
acupuncture and teacher change yielded a model with a moderately good fit (R2 ¼ 0.52, model likelihood ratio test c2(6) ¼ 45.62,
p < 0.0001) (Fig. 4). Retraining status (p ¼ 0.0002), relaxation
techniques (p ¼ 0.008) and changing teacher (p ¼ 0.008) were all
positive predictors of the subjectively rated outcome. Psychotherapy and acupuncture were negative but non-significant predictors.
4. Discussion
This retrospective study was designed to evaluate the subjective
and objective effects of established therapies for the treatment of a
homogenous group of pianists suffering from musician’s dystonia.
It revealed that over the course of four years of simultaneous

participation in various commonly applied therapies, patients reported considerable improvement in their symptoms (79.2%).
However, among those for whom scale playing measurements
were available, only 49% improved objectively.
The present results indicate that retraining therapy ranks
among the established therapies in terms of clinical importance.
Retraining therapy is attractive because of its non-invasive nature.
It is surprising that BTX-A did not appear as a predictor of subjective
outcome. This can be only partially explained by the possibility that
patients who responded less well to retraining turned to BTX-A
afterwards. In fact, of the patients receiving retraining and BTX-A,
only 42% started BTX-A after retraining, whereas 35% received
BTX-A first and then participated in retraining. Finally, 24% participated in both.
The findings from this study are consistent with previous reports where 54% of a heterogeneous group of musicians with
dystonia reported an improvement [5]. On the other hand, in
another study, following sensory retuning up to 70% of the participants reported significant improvement [21]. Similar improvements were found applying BTX-A [4] or sensory training [22]. In
another study, 12 out of 20 pianists using a “slow down technique”
[23] reported a marked improvement (60%) and 8 a mild
improvement [23] (40%). Unfortunately, the studies mentioned
above applied different outcome measures and are therefore not
directly comparable [24].
Objectively measured scale playing evenness revealed a more
modest improvement than objective measures in other studies,
such as the “Frequency of Abnormal Movement scale” (FAM [10]) or
the “Finger Dexterity Scale” (FDS [24]). While perhaps more
objective than the self-rated improvement scales, the latter objective outcome measures were not comparable to ours. It is not clear
which of the objective measures have the most immediate relevance to the quality of piano playing.
We found a significant correlation between the objectively
measured improvement and the categorical subjective rating.
However, patients tended to positively overestimate the development of their symptoms. We propose the following explanation.
The objective measure was based on scale playing, which is the part
of music performance most challenging to MD patients. However,
12
F.T. van Vugt et al. / Parkinsonism and Related Disorders 20 (2014) 8e12
in practice, patients tend to shift their selection of music materials
away from those that provoke dystonic movements (e.g., music
containing scales). As a result, they may feel less impaired than they
really are. Additionally, patients’ positive overestimation may have
reflected a particular attitude among musicians and their perceived
self-control through active involvement in the treatment process.
This discrepancy between subjective and objective measures underlines the need to establish objective measures of impairment in
MD in order to better monitor therapy outcome.
In keeping with other reports, this study revealed the presence
of motor control problems at tasks other than musical performance
in the majority of patients. Although MD has traditionally been
termed “task-specific”, several studies reported deficits in additional, non-musical motor tasks [25]. In one study, symptoms not
linked to the playing were found in 53% of the musician patients [7].
In our study, non-music related symptoms were reduced at fill-out
relative to the first visit. This suggests that the therapies addressing
MD also improved performance in other fine motor tasks. This
could reflect some general organizational structure of the human
motor system [26].
This study had some limitations. It included a small number of
subjects. This may limit the interpretation of findings particularly
based on multiple regression analysis. By design, this is a descriptive retrospective study and required subjects to reflect back on
performance issues as long as four years earlier. There was no
control for the amount of time a subject participated in each of the
therapies. Objective measurements of task specific motor performance were only gathered on a subsample of subjects (less than
50% of the total number of subjects included in this study). The
subjective measurement scales were not previously validated,
which might explain some of the discordances between objective
and subjective measures. Retraining in this study meant pedagogy
and appropriate teaching by a music coach. However, retraining can
also refer to retraining of the brain following the principles of
neuroplasticity. This type of training could also be the focus in
physiotherapy, occupational or hand therapy. In the present study,
all physiotherapy and all hand therapy were assumed to include the
same type of treatment. It is possible, however, that there may be
significant differences in these interventions, some focusing on
coaching the patient through sensory, motor or sensorimotor
retraining rather than simple posture, flexibility and strengthening.
Therefore the present findings must be interpreted cautiously.
In conclusion, this retrospective, descriptive study provides a
perspective on the rehabilitation of pianists with musician’s dystonia. Pianists with a history of dystonic cramps are likely to have
difficulty with comparable fine motor tasks in other contexts. Pianists with MD are likely to improve in performance after participating in a variety of rehabilitative interventions. In this four-year
retrospective analysis, affected musicians had a more positive
impression of their recovery of task specific motor control
compared to objectively documented gains of performance values.
