[nabs-l] Braille Music

[Miso Kwak]

Hi Jordan,
Once you figure out the basics, I think the best way to practice is by
having a piece of music both in recording and Braille so that you can
read and listen and figure out how to actually transfer what you are
reading to your playing/singing.

As a few others have suggested, if possible I would suggest that you
learn from someone in person.

All the best,

Miso Kwak
