After all, my primary area of expertise is German, Spanish, and education. I do not hold any type of degree in music, certainly my knowledge of anything more than rudimentary music theory is quite limited at this point. That said, sadly, there are no Braille music instructors in my area that are available to provide weekly instruction to this very bright 11-year-old. So I’m stepping up to the plate. This child is totally blind, very intelligent, and eager to learn. I want to do all I can to make Braille music a good experience for him. I’ve ordered Happy Fingers, Books 1 and 2, and just ordered the 2006 version of Dictionary of Braille Music Signs via Braille on demand. I figure I should have a newer edition than the one I acquired at age fourteen. . But I don’t know the first thing about actual Braille music instruction. Please help me give the very best. . .All advice is very much appreciated. <u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">Braille music literacy is on the decline.
