NOTATIO

My 12 year old desktop Mac Mini won't allow software capable of running Dorico 5, so my 9 year old MacBook is due to function for a while as my new desktop connecting to a large portrait orienting monitor etc etc. I'm just now typing this on a brand new MacBook which I plan to take with me on my aut...

I clicked on the link at 12.10 GMT and immediately got through…

In English I would be unequivocal. The list of percussion instruments at the beginning would include both Suspended Cymbal (with any required sub-types listed as appropriate) and Clashed Cymbals, then later I'd have something like ‘cyms. clashed’. Exactly how you might word this would depend on the ...

I seem to remember, albeit rather vaguely, that a certificate was obtained that would run out after a certain period (3 years?) and that renewal when due would need action. I *think* this was all done by OCTO but I may be wrong. Might there be some cost involved? My memory of this is far from clear ...

And on further reflection this morning, I think maybe I'm likely to go back to the 9:6 tuplet I originally had, unless anyone here comes up with a compel...

I previously had Cl.1 play a tuplet of 9:6 in 6/8, but have edited it so that this clarinet now stays in 3/4 for three bars while everyone else who is playing continues to alternate between 6/8 and 3/4. Tempo :5d = 69. Which solution seems best to people on this forum? It is made more complicated (p...

It must surely depend on the nature, character and scale of the score. I've just been (minor) editing a score of mine from 2012 of a 90 minute piece that plays continuously (although a break is possible if preferred). With most empty staves removed it is on 315 pages of full score, but there are 410...

I got something similar in Firefox.
