[Menvi-discuss] Accessible music notation software

[Ella Yu]

Hi, I don't know of a direct way to be able to take a musicxml file and
open it so you can play it back while displaying sheet music at the same
time. What I personally do, is convert the xml to a brf file that I can
read on my braille device, and then if I want to listen along, I can open
the same file in MuseScore and go fro there.
