[Nfbc-info] Seeking Braille Instructional Piano Music Book(s) of Lessons (DrV)

[Chuy and Kia Vaca]

Hi,

Here are three books that I believe will be of great benefit to your sons.

An Introduction to Music for the Blind Student, A Course in Braille
Music Reading Parts I and II
  By Richard Taesch

An Introduction to Piano for the Blind Student, A Course in Braille
Music Reading, Books 1 and 2
  By Richard Taesch

Jazz & Contemporary Chord Symbol Reading for The Blind Pianist
   By Richard Taesch

I know that the first two books are available from NLS, but I am not
sure about the third book. Also, if you wish to purchase them, they
can be found at:

www.dancingdots.com

If you have any further questions or would like more resources, please
feel free to contact me.
