Sounds of Intent

The ‘Sounds of Intent’ research project was set up in 2002 jointly by the Institute of Education, Roehampton University, and the Royal National Institute of the Blind.

The Sounds of Intent research team developed a framework of musical development covering the whole range of ability, with the aim to investigate and promote the musical development of children and young people with learning difficulties – although the system can also be used effectively with adults.

The framework is freely available to use and works on all platforms and works very effectively using touch screen devices, such as iPads and other tablet devices.
