Stravinsky again, 1927. Bass clef looks kind of sad, though.

Love this one. "Piano" is almost ready for font creation.
Calligraphic pens give the best results.

Arensky, wow!
I am wondering how it would look to create a font based on one of these, as Arensky, and use it in Finale/Sibelius...

Re: The treble clef as handwritten by great composers
I agree, OCTO. So far, Arensky seems to be the winner. But one also notices that there is no correlation between the beauty of the handwriting and the quality of the music.

I think John means the quality of notation practice, not beauty of lines and curves.erelievonen wrote: ↑12 Nov 2017, 15:54"The better the handwriting, the better the composer."John Ruggero wrote: ↑12 Nov 2017, 15:14 I agree, OCTO.
