Hi folks There's a great bit of software called 'Sibelius'. (Not sure of the spelling now I come to write it, but, you know, the composer). It's a fully fledged scorewriting system, that you can 'midi-up' to your instrument. A chap I know was a sales/tech support person for them for a few years. (The company has the same name). He now works for Micheal Nyman, and I wouldn't mind betting that 'Sibelius' is what Nyman now uses to score with.
Is the VG8 a midi instrument? I'm sure if she could plug it into 'Sibelius' she could get a lot of orchestration ideas written out, and perhaps not need to use someone else as an arranger? Of course any midi keyboard would do the trick too.
