<div dir="ltr">Thank you all for responses! Unfortunately, just enlarging doesn't help her out. She has to be able to see the music for the multiple instruments at one time and refer between them quickly. For example, she has to be able to see in the fourth measure of the third stanza that the oboe is doing x, the violas are doing y, the bassoon is doing z, and the tympani is doing abc.<div>
<br></div><div>We had also talked about a CCTV for the hard copy, but again, she wouldn't be able to see the multiple rows of music at one time that is necessary.</div><div><br></div><div>Honestly, I'm coming up with very little to assist her.</div>

Let the record show that Bill McCann does have a low-vision solution. Sounds to me like a high-roller option: a portable flat-panel unit called Lime Lighter Leggiero. Marketed to performers, so aiming for the speed & portability that they would need.<br>

Unfortunately the Dancing Dots site is down at the moment...<br>

Both Sibelius and Coda Finale have screen enlargement capabilities and are commonly used in music composition classes & orchestral scores. See what your music department is using for this class. Could be THIS would be the accommodation needed for the class. Also possible to get the software on a tablet for mobility purposes for her. Worth a look-see, in any case, Heidi. Then ask Bill at Dancing Dots (smile).<br>

Subject: [Athen] Help!! Low vision and music scores<br>
<br>
Hello all,<br>
<br>
I'm needing your expertise and ideas on some accommodation options for a student we have. She has low vision, uses screen magnification. She is registered for a music orchestration course, in which she will have to read orchestra scores. Thus, screen enlargement won't work for her to be able to see multiple lines of the score. The only option I can think of is Dancing Dots. But music and a student with low vision to this extent is not a combination with which I've dealt in the past.<br>
<br>
Any thoughts or ideas on how we can accommodate her? Because of the program that she is in, this is a fundamental course for her degree.<br>
<br>
Many thanks for any assistance you can provide!!<br>
<br>
Heidi<br>
