Hello:

     I would suggest Dancing Dots as a starting point. Also the NLS and APH have music materials.

Regards,

Robert

Subject: [Pibe-division] Seeking Braille Instructional Piano Music Book(s) of Lessons

Hi Everyone,
Our sons have been taking piano lessons for a number of years.
They learned their lessons initially by listening to the pieces being played or the notes and symbols being told to them measure by measure.
Presently they have a great teacher, a jazz musician, who has them record the pieces on their Braille-note.
He is interested in teaching them the pieces in Braille.
Their teacher has read "Who's Afraid of Braille Music?" and "How to Read Braille Music An Introduction" by Bettye Krolick, but what he is looking for is an instructional book of lessons, which will gradually teach them music Braille with actual pieces; just like in print, as in the Faber piano series.
We would appreciate any thoughts/insights.
Sincerely,
Eric & Rasa
