Шаблон:Short description Caroline Schneider Wiseneder (August 20, 1807 – August 25, 1868) was a German composer and music educator who developed a musical notation system for the blind, as well as a kindergarten music curriculum. She was born in Braunschweig, and married an opera singer named Wiseneder.[1] She founded several singing societies, in addition to the Wiseneder Music School for the Blind in 1860, which became the model for several schools throughout Germany.[2] Her method for teaching instrumental music to young children was adopted by the national kindergarten movement established in Germany about 1873.[3] Among other teaching tools, Caroline used toy orchestra instruments which were carefully tuned to harmonize together.[4] She believed that children should always be accompanied by an instrument when they sang.[5] After her death, a marble bust of Caroline was placed in the Braunschweig town library in honor of her achievements.

Caroline composed many melodramas, songs, and educational works, including:
