NOTATIO

You are very welcome, mikkop. I can't believe I didn't notice the repeat of m. 15-16 or would have commented on it earlier. Repeats of short bits like this are generally written out, unless it represents an ad lib. repeat. If you decided to write it out, this would impact the layout issue on p. 3 a...

Thank you again! Four systems on page 3 seems very reasonable and tidy. Did my best with the staff spacing, trying to align the bottom grand staff of p3 with the bottom staff of p2. On p4-5 achieving symmetry seems a lot trickier, mostly becase of the difference in overall density. https://www.mikko...

Dorico user since late-2020. I have tried Lilypond with Frescobaldi and liked the default output though! Dorico just seems most fitting for me workflow-wise. But yeah, those slurs, especially at the end of the staff... Dorico can sometimes make them very weird by default. Here's my manually tweaked ...

Great point. The page turning points got a bit out of order after changing the overall layout, but m. 38 definitely is an ideal place since it's the biggest turning point in the music. I hadn't thought about the facing pages thing (most likely since I'm used to reading from a 12" iPad whenever ...

Thank you everybody for your comments so far!

Thank you for the suggestion!
Improved the overall look of first two pages significantly.

Jäidenlähtö / Ice Run v6

A few stream of consciousness comments ... Thank you for the quick and very helpful answer! Here's a revised version: Jäidenlähtö / Ice Run v5 Funny how I had managed to totally ignore the font issues, on my previous scores the standard conventions you listed are usually respected as they are defau...

Hello, After more than one year of "planning" (= daydreaming) of properly arranging some of my older pieces for piano, I've finally gotten a good start with three pieces. This first one I finished is of a piece called "Jäidenlähtö / Ice Run" (original name is in Finnish), a melod...

Thank you John for the quick and thorough answer! I had somehow totally forgotten the first edition even though I had it on my hard drive, propably because it had some tiny details I didn't like so much and the layout seemed a bit hard to get used to after practising the piece so much from a very di...

Hello there people! I'm a keyboard player from Finland with professional backround in jazz/rock/tango nuevo/contemporary folk music and not so professional background with classical piano. I've been doing computer notation roughly for 14 years, but most of the time I've been writing lead sheets and ...
