What font do you use for SCORE simulation?
Btw, I would use different slur settings than yours if you further want to remove the Sibelius-look. I have somewhere pretty nice settings, I need to find them, I can post.

Re: Software recognition, by eye

I have plenty of ABRSM books at home (Theory).
For me it looks like manually engraved music. It is already 30-40 years old.
I might be wrong, but inconistency in slur shapes and thickness, and position of accidentals seems for me to be manual editing. Though I am not sure if there are new editions.

This doesn't look like Finale. Anyone?

Re: Colored sheet music

I would avoid blue score. It is more difficult to read. Just music is black, everything else blue seems to be good. Or if you really need blue, you can take darker variant (as Knut suggested), but I guess it must be in accordance with the color of the (Jewish) flag, that would not be appropriate...(...

Re: Best notation for 'out of tune' natural harmonics?

If they go more toward the ponticello, maybe even more harmonics can be produced. I would use just circles, and approximate notation (regular). Maybe also accidentals in parenthesis as narrow down or narrow up. How much - no need to make it so in detal, anyway you cannot play other harmonics between...

Re: Composers vs Engravers: Stems and Slurs part 2

Agree with you!

Do you see, both are missing the word "energico" and "cresc" in M2, and "^" at the first note and :cctime
Also the tempo is :5 = 76.
Also wrong stem direction in M2, RH.

Is there any Urtext edition?
Maybe Cantilena Press?

Re: Divisi double stops - Brahms

The reason is voicing. The whole notes are having invisible stems. The voice 2 is down-stemed placed on the right. I would probably have written that on two separate staves … In any case a large symphony orchestra's 2nd violin section of 12 or 14 players might avoid double stopping altogether and pr...
