Orchestra is never loud enuf for Deaf people. My daughter, then young, played her viola in the orchestra for 5 years and my hubby and I, both Deaf, forced ourselves to attend just support and be proud of her. We heard barely a beat. I tried to find something in my hands to feel it. I hope, damn hope, the technical crew will have Deaf people to work with to develop devices without costs to allow Deaf audience to feel the orchestra. It was fascinating to watch how bows moves up/down, long and slow or quick, etc and it gives me to imagine fast and slow melody. However, never felt or heard a beat.

Mentioning Harmony reminds me of my deaf group and I usually performed songs with our signs while we danced at same time at age range of our 20’s! That’s our team style as I imagined that we can do. Yes we faced challenges together like you guys said, translation, dance moves, team sync, etc. We combined different styles from each other into one together. It’s an amazing experience for us that we never forget. I understood you guys. Practice and consistency is key to your success as I say for every artist and performer. You got this 😎💪👍. Love you guys.
