Feeling music – how deaf people perceive music and what it can actually do

2022-03-14T10:11:18+00:00November 25th, 2021|

Spontaneously, we associate music with the sense of hearing. At the same time, we can also experience music with other senses. We are trying to make use of this in our early musical education. In our lessons, children should perceive music holistically, they should not only hear it but also feel it. And of course deaf people can also perceive, experience and make music. They can feel the music and concentrate on the vibrations. Because music doesn't just land in our auditory canal, it flows through our body and triggers certain emotions.

Music and speech have a lot in common. Characteristics such as pitch, tempo, intonation and timbre play an equally important role in speaking and in making music.

The voices of parents and siblings convey a sense of security and the mother's heartbeat is the rhythm of the beginning of life. These sounds also promote our development, especially the development of the brain.

Listening to children properly

Most parents do think about how they (want to) talk to their children, but hardly any of them think about how they listen to their children. And in doing so, we often forget to give children what we naturally demand of them: "Listen to me." Because we know that no matter how good we are at talking, without listening there will be no successful communication, understanding, or comprehension.

Sounds, tones and rhythms can soothe us, touch us, give us goose bumps or awaken our urge to move. Hearing has different and varied effects on our body and soul.
