Did You know that children born deaf can recite poems and even sing?

Don't you believe it? You have the opportunity to see it yourself! On October 10, at 18.00 (Moscow time), the First International online music festival for children with cochlear implants "Become a Star with MED–EL!" will be held under the auspices of the Sochi Dialogue Civil Society Forum and within the framework of the cross-year of Literature and Theater of Russia-Austria: medelsuperstar.ru

At the festival, children who were born deaf or completely lost their hearing in early childhood will show their talents in singing, poetry, dancing and playing musical instruments.

Can they hear? Yes! All of them hear with the help of cochlear implants - devices that replace hearing. Every child who was born deaf or lost their hearing can get such an implant for free! Every year, the state allocates more than 1,000 quotas for such children.

Certainly, after the operation, rehabilitation is necessary - learning to hear with a "new ear". But it is worth it! Children with cochlear implants (CI) go to secondary schools together with ordinary children, and also develop their talents even in the musical fields!

For the first international creative online festival, there were a large number of applications from children with KI! You will be able to see 16 of the brightest performances on October 10 at 18.00 at the online concert on the website medelsuperstar.ru

The concert is free, and emotions are priceless! These kids are real stars! And they inspire parents and other children around the world to pursue their dreams no matter what!
