The Gardner's Trust for the Blind has established an annual competition,
designed to encourage the use of Braille music amongst students up to the
age of 19 in the UK. RNIB administers the tests of reading, understanding
and performing from memory at five levels plus a Senior Braille Music
Literacy Awards. All candidates receive a report and a certificate of entry
and the best entrant reaching the required standard at each level is given a
prize ranging from £10 to £250.
Tests are to be held in May, June and July 2010. Specimen tests in Braille
and print are available from the Music Advisory Service on demand or from
our website at www.rnib.org.uk/music
We look forward to hearing from you!
