Extraordinary Measures studies the impact of disability and concepts of disability on composers, performers, and listeners with disabilities, as well as on discourse about music and works of music themselves. It shows that music (its composers, performers, listeners, critical traditions, and exemplary works) both embodies and constructs disability.
