[blindkid] Large Print music

[Holly Baker Miller]

We have a budding drummer on our hands and are running into sheet music
issues.
Hank (going into 5th) normally needs 20-ish point font when he reads and
will hold that 6-8 inches from his face to read.  The music teacher made
enlarged copies of the pages onto 11x17 paper, laminated it to give it some
body and put a spiral binding at the top.  Problem is once it's on a music
stand it's too far for him to see and I think the lamination is creating
glare that doesn't help the situation. Add to that it's a photo copy so not
the greatest contrast.
 Today I watched his lesson and he was leaning way over the drum and
squinting hard just to see some very basic beats.

Any thoughts on how to better format sheet music for him?  I'm thinking
maybe landscape pages would be easier to put on a music stand but copying
from the book puts it in portrait.  Can large print blank music sheets be
bought or printed somewhere?  I'm wondering if I can bribe my older drummer
son to hand transcribe the music with a 20/20 marker to get bolder print.
I have zero musical talent myself so all of this is confusing to begin with!

Braille is not an option at this point unfortunately as we are still in
dispute with the district about him learning/using braille (long story, we
do have a lawyer)

Thanks!
Holly
