Session 8: Songbook Example |
This is an example from the songbook "Time and the Flying Snow", by Gordon Bok. The braille example starts with a transcribers note that states that the music notation is not reproduced. Followed by a centered title, we used a block paragraph style for the song description. We also chose to follow the print notation of putting the refrain in italics, interspersed between verse fragments. Rule 11, Section 4(3) states that the refrain or chorus should only be brailled once, but since the refrain is fragmented, we chose to follow the print representation.
