Feel the music: Deaf children sense sounds in Switzerland (Learning World: S5E20, 3/3)

"Feel the music" is part of the Mahler Chamber Orchestra’s "Beethoven Journey" concert series. Deaf and hard of hearing children are sensing the sound of a drum or the vibrations of a cello with their whole body. They touch them, sit under the piano and conduct the musicians. This time, three schools from Zurich and around Lucerne in Switzerland are participating. A life-enhancing project for both - children and musicians: "Touching the instrument I could feel it through my hand and my arm in my whole body. But also all the other instruments have transmitted vibrations to my body" says one of the students. The idea for the workshop with deaf and hard of hearing children was born because of Beethoven, who himself turned hard of hearing in his 20s and later deaf which totally influenced his compositions. Since May 2012, there have to date been workshops in eight European countries. Around 150 children have taken part. After the experience and surrounded by the orchestra the schoolchildren are invited to draw their impressions. A deaf teacher explains how he is trying to bridge the gap between hearing people and those who are deaf or hard of hearing - watch this episode:   • Видео   How can deaf children learn to love reading if they have never read a book in their native language?
