Memorization is a fundamental process in the musical practice of a blind or low vision student. The score is useful for learning, but the musician may not use it during the performance. The memorization techniques must, in a progressive process, be started since the beginning of music, and be allied to the listening practice so that the future musician acquires the necessary skills for the practice of the instrument, ensemble practice and to understand formal structures and stylistic contents.
In this session we intend to address the memorization process and explore methodologies and pedagogical resources that allow a teacher to provide this student with a full musical learning experience.
