Insights in Sound

Visually Impaired Musicians' Lives and Learning

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Music has long been a way in which visually impaired people could gain financial independence, excel at a highly-valued skill, or simply enjoy musical participation. Yet there has been relatively little sociological research bringing together the views and experiences of visually impaired musicians themselves throughout the life-course. Insights in Sound cuts across a range of contexts - from amateur to professional, classical to popular, performance to composition - aiming to discover, analyse and share a rich range of insights into the lives and learning of these musicians.
