Recenzje

Shared Musical Lives brings us a source of joy, comfort, and rejuvenation at a time when all of us need a clearer understanding of what it means to be human. Licia Carlson gives us a remarkably humane philosophical meditation on the cultural vibrancy of disability arts and its potential to infuse dignity and meaning into lives often misunderstood and underappreciated. Carlson's book calls us to witness and appreciate the political, ethical, and healing force of music for everyone.
