The laziness of this topic equals learning G clef only and expecting everything else outside it to be written in octave (8va).
The bass clef is visually transposed G clef, and vice versa.
Just learn damn transposition. It is as difficult as learning riding a bike.

Re: Scores in C or transposing?
Once he also said that his own music has changed since he started using a notation software for composing (or it was Digital Performer?). Some great composers hate transposed scores. Prokofiev hated all kind of "useless constrains" that didn't result in a plain output. He notated the Engli...

Re: First MuseScore experience
I think that MuseScore can produce an exceptional good output. There are many things that I miss in MS4 but there is one thing that all other programs (Finale, Sibelius) lack is: "move an item and keep it there until I touch it"—setting. My journey you can see here: https://notat.io/viewto...

Re: Placement of tuplets
So I began to wonder: Where does this "basic rule" come from really? I believe that the rule is similar to where the beams are placed. Usually the tuplet should be placed at the "beaming" side. Thus in "Gould - tuplets b.JPG", the example is actually wrong. The first t...

Re: Italic/oblique flat and sharp glyphs?
I agree. It would be such as making staff "italic", or stems "italic". I would stick with exact roman for both accidentals AND note-names, the font should differ from the rest of music.

Re: Fermata question
Two quarter rests seems clearer to me. I'm pretty sure Arnstein would have done it that way since he wanted exact correspondence of fermatas between all the parts including within cues. Exactly. The fermata is precisely on the second beat, starting and finishing there. There is no fermata on the fi...

Re: Another Mozart Centered Beam
Question on the source: why the printed version you attached doesn't show the two triplets in beat 4, left-hand, of both bars, and in beat 2, right-hand? The passing notes that create the triplets appear to have been added later throughout the piece. Most editors have felt that this was probably an...
