Música más lengua de signos: una revisión de la literatura.

Sign Language incorporated into music is a new kind of inclusive art that is getting more and more presence in society due to social networks and different artistic initiatives. Music is conceived as a multisensory experience in which visual and tactile stimuli and expressive movement enrich the listening experience. This work aims at knowing the incidence of sign language in musical interpretation, as well as verifying its possible contributions to the musical perception of people with or without hearing impairment through a review of the academic literature. The search was carried out using specialized databases, Web of Science (WoS), Scopus-Elsevier (Scopus), ProQuest, and the Google Scholar digital search engine in Spanish and English. Inclusion and exclusion criteria are established in order to exclusively obtain documents related to the study objective. In the results obtained, there is a scarcity of studies, most of the documents deal with personal experiences or analyze YouTube videos. Verifies that the amalgamation of music plus Sign Language is an inclusive multimodal practice that makes perceptual experiences more meaningful for people with or without hearing impairment. At the same time, it is evident that other presumed benefits of this practice are still pending study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
