I'm just passing this along. Interestingly, it came to me on a list 
of mostly sighted musicians.

The "Visually-impaired musicians' lives" (VIML) project

The "Visually-impaired musicians' lives" (VIML) project is a UK 
national investigation into the musical practices, participation 
and learning experiences of blind and partially-sighted people. 
VIML is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) 
at the Institute of Education, University of London, and has two 
official partners, the Royal National Institute of Blind People 
(RNIB) and Royal Academy of Music, London. Dr David Baker is the 
Project Leader and Professor Lucy Green his Co-Investigator and 
Mentor. Through an online questionnaire and confidential 
interviews, VIML will investigate the experiences of all types of 
visually-impaired musician, including instrumentalists, singers, 
composers and music teachers. We are interested in both amateurs 
and professionals, even adults who have just begun to learn an 
instrument. Participants will be invited to a conference, where 
findings will be shared, and exciting "music days" of practical 
music-making
If you are a visually-impaired and an instrumentalist, singer, 
composer, music teacher, or sighted and working with 
visually-impaired musical learners, please visit our website or 
make contact for further information. Please let us know if you 
would like to participate in this exciting venture as an 
interviewee, "music day" performer or composer, or conference delegate.
