Re: A question about MuseScore that I saw brought up
Oh, this is hard to read living in a country that currently refuses to rule out a military invasion of Greenland, Panama, and even Canada. :(
Yup, and a lot of people are looking to migrate, at least partially, from American and American-owned services, myself included. That said, I think a lot ...

Re: Style Advice for new project
Thank you very much for the lovely compliment John, it's much appreciated. I'll have a look at all of those items, they're really well observed. I didn't know about shaping portato slurs generally, so thanks for that. Distances between noteheads and articulations and other scripts is something ...

Re: Style Advice for new project
As usual, I'm using Lilypond. I think if this goes well I might look at getting Dorico, but at the moment it's not in my budget sadly.
Here's a couple of example pages, one from the full score, one from the parts. It's early days (I'm still doing note entry for one of the books) and the full score ...

Style Advice for new project
Hi all,
Having graduated, I've been given an opportunity to do some engraving work through my uni as part of a research project, creating editions of some books of quintets from ~1730s French parts. The uni is mostly concerned about accuracy/editorial stuff, which I'll leave mostly to others, but ...

Re: What are your reference scores for good engraving?
For solo instrumental works, my high standard is André Jolivet's Cinq Incantations pour flûte seule, published by Boosey & Hawkes (B. & H. 19381). Extremely detailed, but highly legible. One of the few pieces I play from the original because I've never needed to write anything on it.

Re: First engraving for commentary: Koechlin Choral
Oops, that's an error on my part! As were a couple more that I found this morning.
I definately agree with you on the accidentals, the composer's are better. I had anther go at adding in cautionaries this morning and with some tweaks it worked a lot better this time. I still need to go through and ...

Re: First engraving for commentary: Koechlin Choral
Thanks John and Roland for your advice, it was really helpful.
I hadn't considered changing the tuplet brackets to slurs. I'm a flautist most of the time so I can't remember the last time I saw tuplet slurs that were not horrifically unclear, but trying it out I see what you mean. Another tool to ...
