A Musician's Path Through Focal Dystonia

What happens when a “natural” task suddenly feels “foreign”?? For many musicians struggling with injury, the feeling of “not knowing your own body” is very common. But this feeling is usually even more prominent in those suffering from Focal Dystonia - in which their brain literally switches or crosses signals to the body! In this episode of the Tuned and Strong Podcast, Dr. Joanna Cowan White shares with us her experience of developing, living with, and recovering from focal dystonia. Join us as she discusses her thoughts, feelings, experiments, and creative outlets during her journey to reclaim her performance abilities!

May 16, 2017 https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama... *************************** Musician’s Focal Dystonia It’s the voice of that person comes through the instrument. ––Franz Welser-Möst When dystonia scrambled my brain signals like a virus corrupts a hard drive, I was sure I could not spend ten-thousand hours retraining my brain to play the flute a new way, but when I heard that a luthier and his son restored the holocaust violins to free their lost voices, I changed my mind. If I am silenced, you would not miss me but the way my vibrato, on the first c# of L’apres midi d’un faune, conjures up a sultry summer afternoon, the way your hips swing when I play a tango, the way you hear whales when I close my lips around the mouthpiece to hum Voice of the Whale. The original ten-thousand hours, I will tick in reverse, a feat as tricky as learning to ride a backwards bicycle, until once again I can curve quiet fingers over the keys, whistle my lips to laser the tone down the silver tube, your body ringing in sympathetic vibration.
