About the event
In this workshop, participants will study how music is interpreted and presented into American Sign Language and what the greater visibility of signed singing means for the Deaf community.
Performances by Deaf performers and interpreters at the Super Bowl and the proliferation of ASL videos have fostered new visibility and a broader stage for signed singing.
In this workshop, participants will learn more about the experience of music for Deaf people, and how interpreters and Deaf performers are “making music visible.” Further, participants will discuss how to prepare for musical interpretation, how to interpret beyond the lyrics, and the significance of different styles of music for the Deaf community.
C4 Communication and DEAFinitely Dope invite you to learn more about music in the Deaf community in this amazing workshop, not to be missed.
WORKSHOP EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES:
Participants will develop a plan to prepare to interpret music.
