Thank you; I meant that I'm probably too old to go to any programs, or camps
in order to learn it.  What software would I purchase?  I don't have any
music software; all I have is hardcopy Braille music.  Where would a
beginning user start?  All of this discussion seems confusing to me!

Age has nothing to do with it.  And, besides, you are young.  I am much,
much older and still clicking away.
