Dear All, Please feel free to read a copy of my address on braille music given 3 years ago this week in Paris on the occasion of the bicentenary of the birth of our hero, Louis Braille. The article is entitled: Braille, Beautiful Braille. www.DancingDots.com/support/AddressToBrailleBicentenaryConference.doc From 5th to 8th January 2009, 466 delegates from 46 countries celebrated the bicentenary of Louis Braille?s birth by taking part in the international conference entitled ?Braille 1809-2009: Writing with six dots and its future?. The conference, organized by the Valentin Haüy Association (AVH) <http://www.avh.asso.fr/rubrics/association/association.php?langue=eng&;> and the National Institute for the Young Blind (INJA) <http://www.inja.fr/> , was held at the Headquarters of UNESCO (Paris). Here is another article published originally in the issue of the ICEVI Educator celebrating that same bicentenary. www.DancingDots.com/support/BrailleAndHisMusicCode.doc Happy birthday, Cher Louis!
