Music verses & chorus

[Chris Clemens]

Hello,

I noticed in example 53 of the Braille formats book that after verse 6 the word "Chorus" is put in parentheses, the colon is not brailled - is this correct to leave off the colon? Also, runovers are in cell 3, if there are several lines in the chorus do I braille them continueous (if there is enough room on a line to add the next line) or does a new line start over on a new braille line in cell 3? (each different line starts on their own line) Thanks bh

Rebecca,

I must apologize for the delay in answering you.

I am not sure which Braille formats book you are referencing. However, I would direct you to the second edition of the De Garmo Introduction to Music Braille Transcription, pages 239 ff., for instructions and examples of strophic songs with refrains. I hope your questions are answered there. If not, please contact us again.
