Music teacher looking for help with resources (self.Blind)
submitted by PeaceLoveAtheism
Hello,
I am a trumpet teacher and have recently gained the opportunity to teach a young man (7) who is blind. The little guy is adamant about being a trumpet player and I want to help him as much as I can. Does anyone know of any braille music notation programs that work for Mac? I have access to PC's but access is limited.
Thank you all in advance.

Hi, if you are in the UK I suggest contacting RNIB as they offer advice and support http://www.rnib.org.uk/livingwithsightloss/leisureculture/music/readingmusic/Pages/reading_music.aspx including " If you support or teach a blind musician, we can also offer help in producing music in accessible formats." they also have a website section with info on braille music http://www.rnib.org.uk/livingwithsightloss/leisureculture/music/readingmusic/Pages/braille_music.aspx
