Please direct all questions to Mr. Goldstein, the director of the National Resource Center for Blind Musicians. His program is excellent and I recommend that any blind musician who meets the description below and who is considering the study of music at the post-secondary level should apply. Over the years, I have enjoyed serving David's program as a guest presenter. There is always an abundance of positive energy and cooperation among the staff and students. David possesses a high level of organizational skills and keeps his able staff focused. He even brings the braille fortune cookies! Time for swimming, picnics on the lawn and an outdoor concert of the Philadelphia Orchestra are built into the schedule. At the risk of sounding like a geezer: boy! I wish we had had something like this camp when I was a kid! *** Music students who read contracted English braille and who are in their last years of high school or already in college are invited to request applications for the National Resource Center's Summer braille Music Institute. The program will be held July 11-17 at the Overbrook School for the Blind in Philadelphia. Focused around developing ability to read braille music and to submit theory assignments in print, this intensive provides braille music practice catered to each student's needs, systematic instruction in Dancing Dots' Lime Aloud and GOODFEEL software, and theory classes which progress from basic concepts to harmonic analysis. Applications have several steps, including submission of an audition, and recommendation forms to be completed by teachers. Final Enrollment is limited to six first-time students. Application deadline is May 5. Further information is at www.blindmusicstudent.org/summer_institute.htm The best way to request an application package is to E-mail or call David Goldstein, director of the National Resource Center for Blind Musicians. info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or 203-366-3300, x229.
