The pregnant woman will be listened to by the researcher through headphones. VAS will be applied after each attempt. 1 hour after the birth of the baby and placenta, data will be collected by applying VAS, STAI Form TX-1 and Birth Expectations and Experiences Scale-Part 2 (DBSS-2). Personal Information Form, VAS, STAI Form TX-1 and DBSS-1 will be applied to pregnant women assigned to the music concert group. In the active phase of labor, when the cervical opening is measured as 4-5 cm, 6-7 cm and 8-10 cm, the 15-minute ney concert in the acemasiran tune (instrumental music), which was prepared by the researchers with the service of the ney artist within the scope of the literature (the scenario determined for the birth process), was played from the MP3 player via bluetooth headphones.
