The Amber Trust - Zoe's story
This film is about studying music at university as a blind student.
It features Zoe, who is blind and in her second year as a choral scholar at Worcester College, Oxford, her mother Aileen, and composition tutor, Robert Saxton.
Zoe’s story is a part of ‘Amber Sound Touch’, The Amber Trust’s online resource for teaching music to blind and partially sighted children and young people, including those with additional disabilities.

Zoe is truly an amazing talent who leaves me stunned, the Amber Trust is a wonderful organisation.
Beautiful sweet talented girl. I wish you nothing but happiness in your life. Thank you for sharing your extraordinary gift with us all
What a gift, and what hard work she is prepared to put in to hone that gift. I'm in awe of this young lady.
There is still so much beauty in the world. She is light 😊
Zoe is terrific! I predict a lifetime of music making for her.
So beautiful is she, and those who coach her and others. It is magnificent.
you are a amazeing professional musician.i learned to play the organ. also owen one.i can read some music. but i play by ear. is what my teacher says. .
Inspirational. Wow.
Brilliant! It's all I can say. What a lovely young woman and mother too! And her tutor at Oxford is pretty special also! I love films like this.
Zoe is highly talented regardless of her sight loss, but taking into account the challenges she overcomes, she is quite extraordinary. What a delightful young lady - and what a wonderful mother too! Zoe is one to look out for in the future. Very interesting to read about Robert Saxton her tutor too.
These children are GOD's lessons to us. We can only be still and grateful. 💞🌷🌷🌷 for Zoe. (Holland)
An amazing young lady absolutely brilliant
I'd like to hear her Magnificat now!!
So inspiring.
Zoe is a brilliant talent and I'd love to hear her interpretation of some of Oscar Petersons songs. I feel that Zoe may really have an advantage over sighted musicians who have to read the notes.
This is so wonderful, school has changed so much, thank goodness. School for me being visually impaired was awful no individual teaching.
❤❤❤
Wonderful.
Tell Zoe that I'm pushing my piano off the back deck because I'm 65 and I give up. 😜

They really are extraordinary young people.
Brilliant
Funny you should say that , she with the lack of vision uses music to expand her mind . Charly she's in touch with her subconscious savant mind . That in normal people of perfect fusion scaresly use their INTIRE eye like the savant do . You see our subconscious child is connected to our peripheral vision wile the only thing we of normal use is the strength forward vision . Wile the subconscious perliphial vision is always on to protect us our subconscious child protecting us by our perliphial vision ..! Between perliphial and center vision that's just how close they are to us every day YET NO ONE KNOWS THEY EXIST . Autistic savant read with their entire eye center and perliphial, at the same time , with their center eye just a focal point to them ..!
Because she reads and remembers the INTIRE sheet music page .. Savant read with the INTIRE eye 👁️ not just center vision like all the rest of us ..!
