Autorenporträt
Adam Ockelford is Director of the Applied Music Research Centre at the University of Roehampton in London. He has spent the last four decades working with and researching the impact of visual impairment on developing musicality in children. He specialises in those with special musical abilities or needs. He has written over 20 books and lectures all over the world. His TED talk with the musical savant Derek Paravicini (with whom he has worked for 35 years), In the Key of Genius, can be found on the TED talks website. Adam founded The Amber Trust, a charity that supports visually impaired children in their pursuit of music, with a group of parents in 1995. The Amber Trust was set up in the 1990s to support blind and partially sighted children in their pursuit of music in the UK. Over the last three decades, Amber has supported thousands of children across the spectrum of musical interest and ability, including some who have gone on to have careers in the music industry, while for others, music has opened up language, communication and friendship in a previously dark and confusing world. As well as supporting hundreds of children a year through its Music Awards Scheme, Amber provides specialist services to families who have a blind or partially sighted child in the early years, and to the parents of children who have complex needs in addition to a visual impairment. With Music in Mind is the first music service in the world aimed specifically at supporting blind children and young people with neurodegenerative disease.
