[MusicTlk] Playing Percusion Instruments as a Blind Person

[Humberto Avila]

Hello,


I haven't posted in here in a while, but hopefully everyone has had a 
wonderful start to the holiday season.


I was wondering if there are any of you who has had experience with 
percussion instruments such as the marimba, xylophone, vibrophone, 
glockenspiel, or similar definite pitch insttuments where one has to 
strike keys with sticks, I would like to know. How do you manage your 
instrument as a blind person? Was it easy / challenging / difficult / 
wonderful to learn your instrument? Have you played in an orchestra, 
band or other arrangements?

If not, are there any resources online or social media sources, for 
instance, of successful Blind people / person doing any of these 
instruments, it would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you and have a nice day
