Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Braille music is a Braille code that allows music to be notated using Braille cells so music can be read by visually impaired musicians.  The Braille music system was originally developed by Louis Braille.

Braille music uses the same six-position Braille cell as literary braille.  However braille music assigns a separate meaning to each braille symbol or group of symbols different from literary braille and has its own syntax and abbreviations.
Almost anything that can be written in print music notation can be written in braille music notation.  However, braille music notation is an independent and well-developed system with its own conventions.
The world's largest collection of braille music is located at the National Library for the Blind in Stockport, UK.
