Interesting.
Any source?

I'm not sure if the tempo should be 68, as it is not valid at the traditional Maelzel scale. A tempo of 69 might be better. Yes, I know that with modern digital metronomes, any tempo is possible (consider Stockhausen's 83.5, for example).

My advice is to use measure numbers as rehearsal marks. They are effective, clear, fast, and without confusion (as the pronunciation of letters varies between languages.)

Interestingly, Prokofiev notated the English horn in alto clef—not because he wanted to change history, but because he thought it looked better! However, this was only in the score, and he orchestrated everything in C.

Congrats!
Still, pity that it is out of print.

You have improved greatly your score, thanks to John and Fred.

One thing: why does the last page have a white bottom page. You need to spread the measures to fit it to the bottom. Either to reflow the spacing of the last page to get more systems or to increase spacing between the current systems.

Hello! I was wondering if I could get some guidance on underlay in divisi staves where the rhythms differ. My current solution is as shown below, but I was wondering if there was a convention I missed somewhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated; thanks! Screenshot 2024-10-04 at 12.39.38 PM.png...

This I wouldn't recommend.  For other instruments, you can do it, but on the other side you have to be consequent, which is more difficult.

Dorico?  Wow, congratulations!

I've always had trouble with the viola and its alto clef.  Having two ledger lines for first position on the A string is already more than "enough" for me.  I've always felt that the viola should be notated in mezzo-soprano clef, and it would resemble the violin notation perfectly. Regardi...
