Accommodating Band Students with Visual Impairments
Coates, Rick Lee
Music Educators Journal, v99 n1 p60-66 Sep 2012
This article offers a discussion about some of the accommodations and modifications used in music instruction. The focus here is on the musical tasks and challenges faced by band students with visual impairments. Research and literature reveal an interest in the topic but a lack of accessible materials for immediate use in the classroom and rehearsal. The author seeks to broaden the discussion. (Contains 18 notes.)
