[Menvi-discuss] Please help needed to accommodate music student

[Chela Robles]

Check out dancingdots.com JAWS works with windows platform so you'd
need to provide a windows computer, but here is the cool thing,
Dancing Dots has workstations that come preloaded with what she needs,
and anyone on here can correct me if they are so inclined to do so.

"To me, music that breaks your heart is the music that stays with you
forever. It's one thing to be melancholy and one thing to be sophisticated,
but when you get the two of them together in a way people can relate to,
then I think you're on to something. You want the sophistication to lie in
the purity of the sound, the beauty of the arrangements, and the quality of
the performances."-Trumpeter Chris Botti
