Research realized by Joel Moncorvo

The music is inherent to the human being, to the life. Sounds and rhythms are spread for the nature in a perfect tunning. The music gives to the individual leisure, cooperation, emotional vibration moments. Is an highly disciplinarian element, and can contribute to the moral, intelectual, spiritual and civic peolple formation. If the music is so important for the man, why not leading to the deafness carrier pupil the wealth that it offers?

From this questioning I started my research “The Contrabass and the Deaf Child”.


From the research “the Contrabas and the deaf child”, we can evidence that the body of the deaf child is a privileged place for “expression of its memory”. With a more intent looking on this child, we perceive that the body language is full of creative wealth. Due to a verbal communication fail, is in her body that the movements, position attitudes and gestures, states her emotional experience quality. Thus she substitutes her word loss with her gestual that possesss a linguistic meaning.
