Greetings Karlin, Braille music does indeed exist, though significant variation in its structure and even syntax persists despite attempts at standardization. The main difference between Braille music and printed music is that the former is not in any wise spatial. One benefit of this is that stem directions need never be an issue, and, therefore, voices in - for example, a piano or organ score - can be accumulated with ease and clarity, so long as the hands can play them. But there are certainly benefits to enjoying the spatial dimentions, especially where a full score for an ensemble would be concerned.
