Photographic enlargement of printed music: technique, application, and implications.

Abstract

A need for enlargement of music became critical when retirement home residents were deprived of a self-fulfillment opportunity from participation in formal choir activities due to failing eyesight. A photographic process detailed here was found to yield the needed feasible large reproductions. Innovative application of this technique to open new avenues for the visually sensory impaired elderly affords wide-ranging potential for positive benefit beyond music application.
