We are extremely pleased to share our newest resource with you:
Let's Play! is a web-based application that offers a progressive series of classical guitar solos, in braille and traditional notation, with audio guides that focus on guitar technique and braille music literacy.
For the past six years our team has had the privilege of helping create a braille-adapted version of GuitarCurriculum.com for students at Texas School for the Blind & Visually Impaired. Here's a video about the program, and another showing a recent performance some of the kids gave for about 1,000 people.
Through our work at TSBVI, we came to recognize a need in the blind and low-vision community for a pathway that would empower lifelong learning in classical guitar.
After 16 months of development, we're thrilled to be able to share Let's Play! with you. It is completely free for any student or teacher to use, anywhere in the world. Phase 1 included the platform and curriculum - build and the creation of the first four levels - about twenty solos. We're already hard at work on Phase 2.
We look forward to discussing this and so much more in person at our upcoming National Teacher Training Summits in St. Louis and Austin. Hope to see you there!
