[musictlk] Vocal pieces in a foreign language?

[Penny Golden]

I have never had to deal with both the lyrics and the music in a 
BRF.    Someone had both hands going on the music. I think my 
neighbor put the lyrics and music interlined and read them that way. 
she'll talk to you about it.
Now when we want music, she puts the melodic line first and then the 
words. or she will put S A T B first and then the lyrics.
With a one-line system like the braille-note, apex, or such, there is 
not an easy solution to your problem, i don't think.
Others will know more than I.
