Deaf children's choir finds rhythm in verse

By Zhao Xu

In May, primary-school teacher Li Bailin was approached by a Beijing-based musician who had formed a choir made up of deaf children.

"He wanted me to teach them poetry writing, which they could then weave into their stage performances," Li said.

She agreed, and soon set out from her home in Huitong county, Hunan province, to Guilin in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, about 250 kilometers away.
