Discriminating Orchestral Instruments with new CI
I have 12 years of classical music training; I spent 6 years in orchestras in HS and college. So...what can I hear now, with 2 CI's? I went on to an orchestra listening site (http://www.thirteen.org/publicarts/orchestra/) to test what I could hear--what I could discriminate (just for fun).
The site gives you pictures of 4-5 instruments, and a sound clip about 2-3 seconds long. You click on the instrument you hear. WELL, I got 11 out of 14 correct--with just my new ear!!! Three weeks post activation!!! WOOHOO!!!!!
I'm a happy camper. :D :D
