Cerebral Palsy and playing the flute
Cerebral Palsy and playing the flute

Hi!

I am a flutist in South-Africa. I read an article by Linda Flechsig, living with cerebral palsy. I got interested and surfed the internet and youtube to understand more about cerebral palsy.

As a teacher of many youngsters I would like to know if it is possible for somebody with cerebral palsy to play the flute?

Any response welcome

Warm Regards,
Pierre Tolsma

It depends on how cp affects the child. I played the french horn 4 a while because it was the only lefty handed instrument but I really love the guitar.
