Hi Cindy,

The electronic braille file of the book Penny referred to has some 
errors. It's called Gospel Hymns.  I believe that it was brailled by 
the Illinois School.

I have three hard copy books with music as separate volumes. One is a 
two-volume set called Evangel Hymnbook, and has words and music. It's 
from Christian Education for the Blind, Inc.

The other two are from Lutheran Braille Workers, Inc, and the music 
volumes are separate with no words.  These are Crusader Hymns and 
Favorite Hymns.

I have no idea if these are still available! Smile.

Sarah, the Gospel Hymnal Penny mentioned has the four parts written 
separately, then the harmony, which is music written for piano or 
keyboard in paragraph style, not bar over bar. It's very possible to 
learn the notes, since the harmony is written with two notes in each hand.

HTH.

Blessings,

Linda
