[Menvi-discuss] Braille Music Courses

[Marda]

Yes, the books are great.  I like Stephanie's book for some of my early 
piano students but it can be used for other instruments or voice.  They also 
have the two Happy Fingers books by Karen Gearreald and Christina Davidson, 
both of whom, I believe, are on those lists.  The Happy Fingers books are 
good for beginners to see what a song they know looks like in Braille music 
notation and for those whose ear is less trained they sharpen the Braille 
music reading in a different way.  All great stuff!
