[musictlk] fingering chart for french horn

[Richard Holloway]

Thanks, this would be for a double horn actually. A chart for a single (or one side of the double) would obviously help but I'm trying to make the layout of the entire horn easier for her to grasp. 

I was really assuming that some source would have a variety of charts available for various brass instruments already in Braille.  So far that seems not to be the case. 

I may actually look for a print chart and ask someone at her school to braille it since this is for school band-- that seems an appropriate accommodation. I have a terrible time doing this sort of thing-- making up something like these charts accurately. 

One of the few "disadvantages" of having a child so skilled with Braille plus a smoothly working system at school is that I've never learned, as a typically sighted parent, to do much with transcription... there's just never been a pressing need. 

I'm also hoping to see if library of congress might have something, as suggested by someone on the list yesterday. 

Thanks for the suggestion.
