Hello,
Sibelius 5 is accessible with the very old scripts I can give you if you would 
like.
But Lime and Lime aloud from Dancing Dots are hands down the best music 
notation programs out there for the blind.
Thank you,

Brandon Keith Biggs

I know of tow possibilities for this situation:

 

1, Braille Music Editor or Braille Music Kit, actually lets you write braille 
in a text editor, proof it and send a special file to Finale to print. But I 
don’t know how accessible the Finale part of this is.

 

2, The more likely solution is to use Lime with Lime Aloud from Dancing Dots. 
The student will write print music in lime using an accessible interface. Not  
quite braille to print, but this probably works a bit better and is better 
known.

Is there any way for my student to convert music she composes in Braille to 
sheet music so the music teacher can read it?
