[musictlk] Vocal pieces in a foreign language?

[Ignasi Cambra]

In French there is a contracted Braille system which is widely used in France. But the truth is that if you are going to take only one class, it's probably not worth for you to learn it. It has nothing to do with american contractions. Just remember the Braille signs for certain French characters which do not exist in English and you'll be OK. I don't know about german though.
