Summary

Focus on Music breaks new ground. It is the first survey of its kind to explore the musicality of blind and partially-sighted children in the UK and US. Through the eyes and ears of their parents and teachers, and through the firsthand experiences of the research team, an intriguing picture emerges of a group of young people in whose lives music occupies a special place.
