Re: Vocal scores and staff sizes

Re: Vocal scores and staff sizes

The only problem of the reduced piano score is that a pianist must accompany the choir: isn't 4.7mm to small? Oh, sure, but that's not what it means. It's referring to the individual parts' scores that shows both a violin and piano part. The piano part's score shows the violin part, but at a reduce...

Re: Extra fonts in Finale

Vocal scores and staff sizes

What is the preferable staff size of the choral music with piano reduction:
