I do braille transcription for students at the Univeristy of Minnesota and
have recently had a request that some music be trascribed into braille.
I can't find anyone with a good reference for braille music notation.

Can someone please give me the name of a good book on the subject?

Also, it would be useful if anyone who has used braille music would tell me
what they think of it, both pro and con.  

Does anyone haven other ideas for how a blind person can write and read music?

Any discussion about braille music would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Curt
