Re: [Finale] O.T.: 2 Vivaldi movies slated to be released
Remind me a lot about the story of avant garde composer Claude Vivier (1948-1983) who was murdered by a young Parisian male prostitute. His last work was the unfinished Glaubst du an die Unsterblichkeit der Seele, which contains a disturbing premonition of his untimely death. His music was a not unsuccessful ultra modern french ligetianian styled spectral tapestries...if you know what I mean... On Mar 27, 2007, at 9:44 PM, David W.

I *knew* that name sounded vaguely familiar! I knew this guy. Back in 1970 the New England Conservatory held a Symposium for Student Composers, wherein grad student contingents from 8 different schools in the NE US and adjacent Canada got together, gave concerts, and generally learned from each other and had a good time. Vivier was part of the contingent from the Conservatoire de Musique de Montréal. I saved the symposium's program book, wherein I had entered checks and Xs next to the titles offered, to show my opinion of them. I see that I gave Claude Vivier's *Proliferation* a double check, so I clearly was impressed by it--but I have absolutely no memory of the piece today. Of Vivier himself I remember only that he was already on his way out the conservatory door, that this concert was his parting shot. At that same conference I made friends w. Jean Laurendeau, who played ondes martenot in Vivier's piece, and has gone on to be a major exponent of his instrument.

[Finale] Lyrics conundrum
I'm in the middle of a very long chart that originally had a D.S al Coda. But the page turns to go back were not workable so I'm going to write it straight through. The chart involves a vocal line with verse one and verse two lyrics on the original D.S.. So I copied the music and lyrics to the new measures I attached to the end of the chart. So now of course I need to get rid of verse two in the first section and verse one in the second section. Is there a way to do this, with mass mover or a plug-in? If I just try and erase verse one in the added section, it erases them in the first section as well. I presume because I copied them there.

A better way to organise that is to erase all the lyrics from the second section with the Mass Mover, then go to the Edit Lyrics window, cut with command X the lyrics from verse 2 and paste them into the verse 1 window. Then go to Click Assignment and alt-click (opt-click for Mac) on the first note of the new verse and all those lyrics will be assigned. Use Shift Lyrics to adjust for melismas. This method also ensures that all the lyrics have the same baseline. Christopher ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
[Finale] inconsistent barlines
Hello, I am working on a score for full orchestra. The score is complete but when I print it to .pdf, the bar lines for part of the score are darker than other parts. I first noticed it in the perc parts where I reset the staff lines for two of the 5 staves to a 3 line grid. The bar lines for these two staves extend slightly above and below the staff. When I print to pdf, these two barlines are darker than the rest of barline which extends through the entire percussion section. In fact, the barlines for the woodwinds brass are also darker than the strings the other staves of the percussion section. It looks like there was a second barline drawn over the first one for the ww, brass the two perc staves, making them darker than the others. The paper printout doesn't seem to be affected, just the pdf version. Is there a setting that I missed which needs to be adjusted? Nick Raspa AOL now offers free email to everyone.

Re: [Finale] inconsistent barlines
I tried viewing it in pdf form with the built in OSX preview program, I exported a page in PICT format viewed it with the Preview program and both had the darker lines show up. However, when I viewed the pdf in Acrobat 7 reader, it looked just fine. It appears the problem shows up with the Preview Program. I tried adjusting the barlines and that does seem to have an effect. I went into staff attributes. staff setup and changed the barlines for one of the percussion staves that is affected. I changed the top barline from 24 to -64 and the bottom barline from -24 to 64 (I just picked the number 64 to see what would happen). Now when I view the pdf in the OSX Preview Program, the dark part of the line for that particular staff is significantly reduced. The paper printout is still unaffected. I could probably get it to disappear completely if I enter a large enough number. I suppose I could adjust the barlines enough so that they disappear and are no longer a problem, however, I don't seem to have the sfaff setup option available to me with the standard 5 line notation option selected. So the only barlines it seems I can change would be the ones where I have staff:other selected such as in the percussion staff. That doesn't seem like a real good solution. Is there something, perhaps I missed when setting up the group barlines? My concern is that I make perusal scores available in pdf format, so I don't want these dark lines to show up at all. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: finale@shsu.edu Sent: Wed, 28 Mar 2007 4:43 PM Subject: Re: [Finale] inconsistent barlines On 28-Mar-07, at 4:35 PM, dhbailey wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I am working on a score for full orchestra.
