Music and dyslexia is of particular interest for two reasons.
Firstly, research suggests that music education can benefit young
dyslexics as it helps them focus on auditory and motor timing
skills and highlights the rhythms of language. Secondly, dyslexic
musicians at a more advanced level face particular challenges such
as sight-reading, written requirements of music examinations and
extreme performance nerves.
This is a sequel to the highly successful Music and Dyslexia:
Opening New Doors, published in 2001. The field of dyslexia has
developed rapidly, particularly in the area of neuropsychology.
Therefore this book focuses on these research advances, and draws
out the aspects of music education that benefit young dyslexics.
The contributors also discuss the problems that dyslexic musicians
face, and several chapters are devoted to sight-reading and
specific strategies that dyslexics can use to help them
sight-read.
The book offers practical techniques and strategies, to teachers
and parents to help them work with young dyslexics and dyslexic
musicians.
