I'm unfamiliar with Noteworthy Composer but I thank you both for mentioning it - always good to know.
For much of my living, I write computer software, and I consider myself a pretty picky user of computer software as a result, but I can find very little to complain about in Sibelius. For the musical portion of my living, I am often called upon to do choral arrangements, and handling text for voices can be tricky. Sibelius handles it about as well as I can imagine possible. As always, there is a proper tool for a specific job. I will try Noteworthy in the very near future. In the meantime, I'll continue to buy manuscript paper at the local music store. -S- > -----Original Message----- > From: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > du] On Behalf Of Steven Slaff > Sent: Tuesday, October 04, 2005 5:30 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; The Horn List > Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Free Music Paper > > Carl, > > I agree wholeheartedly!
