This research aimed to collect and combine all data on working with a highly visually impaired student in individual piano lessons and to determine a way of adopting new compositions and communication and cooperation between students and teachers. The qualitative method of case study, in which the methods of non-participatory observation and semi-structured interview were applied, concluded that the success of making music depends mostly on the approach and competencies of teachers in teaching such a student and that there are ways to overcome low vision as an obstacle in playing a musical instrument.
