Eton Choirbook replica

[benwiggy]

I did this a while ago, and thought I'd posted here before, but apparently not.

Here's an attempt to recreate a page from John Browne's O maria salvatoris mater, from the Eton Choirbook.

Most of it was done in Dorico: I used Affinity to finish off a few things in the PDF:

• Stems had to be coloured red. (Dorico only colours the noteheads.)
• Ligature notes had to be either 'pushed together' or have new noteheads swapped in. (You could use tuplets to do more of the work in Dorico.)
• Alternating the pairs of rests.
• Adding the tinted background.

The original is here:

That's beautiful.
