Summary
Harry had never heard music. If he was asked, he would say there was music in the way ballerinas moved the one time he saw them on the telly when Vernon had fallen asleep and left it on, a slow kind of music when he was cleaning all day and his movements were steady and repetitive, and a wonderful music in the hands of skilled signers as they conversed in British Sign Language. See, Harry Potter was deaf. You might think that he developed the disability due to abuses from his brutish muggle guardians, the Dursleys, but he had been born that way and, quite frankly, didn’t consider it a disability at all. His Deafness was part of who he was, and he wasn’t ashamed of it the way he was of his scrawny frame or ill fitting clothing. At the very least, it meant he almost never had to hear the Dursleys yelling at him.
