Approaching disability as a cultural construction rather than a
medical pathology, this book studies the impact of disability and
concepts of disability on composers, performers, and listeners with
disabilities, as well as on discourse about music and works of music
themselves. For composers with disabilities--like Beethoven, Delius, and
Schumann--awareness of the disability sharply inflects critical
reception. For performers with disabilities--such as Itzhak Perlman and
Evelyn Glennie--the performance of disability and the performance of
music are deeply intertwined. For listeners with disabilities,
extraordinary bodies and minds may give rise to new ways of making sense
of music. In the stories that people tell about music, and in the
stories that music itself tells, disability has long played a central
but unrecognized role. Some of these stories are narratives of
overcoming-the triumph of the human spirit over adversity-but others are
more nuanced tales of accommodation
and acceptance of life with a non-normative body or mind. In all of these ways, music both reflects and constructs disability.
