Hi Richard
I discovered what you were saying about er when I had a Canadian student

Her name wasn't Michelle Himmler, but it is close enough for my

She pronounced it himLER as far as my Aussie ears could determine.
Hi Johannes,
You are right that it's probably best if you try it yourself to see if
Sib's beaming options can reproduce Henle beams to your satisfaction.
Again, I recommend asking about specific options on the Sibelius list,

Actually, what I would like to see is a kind of negative competition.
I want to see which deficiencies the programs have. Eg, I would really
like to know how Sibelius's beams and slurs (in V6) compare to Finale's.
Beams an slurs were the two items which made me stay with Finale. So
