Abstract
Auditory sensory deprivation is a phenomenon characterized by a significant decrease or complete subsidence in sending external sound information through the organ of hearing to the human brain. Various infectious diseases, vascular pathology, genetic abnormalities, and intoxication conditions may lead to various diseases of the ear and, as a consequence, to hearing loss or deafness. The second part of the paper covers the biographical data of such composers as Agathe Backer Grøndahl, Aleksandr A. Kasyanov, Evelyn Elizabeth Ann Glennie. The paper assesses the development of auditory sensory deprivation with the onset of deafness and shows the influence of auditory sensory deprivation and the psychological state of composers on the results of their creative activity. The author compares the internal crisis, mental destabilization, and the lack of sound perception with the effective implementation of musical experience, which allowed the composers to create great musical works, despite their pathological condition. In addition, the paper points out the possibility to continue effective creative activity and give live musical performances due to the sense of ‘feeling’ the vibrations and the ability to develop and use it in a proper way (Evelyn Glennie). Synesthetic perception is revealed through the given work.
