I particularly like the last one on the right.
I thought, the OP did that, but I guess not.

Anyway, the fonts are, from left to right:
Maestro
Engraver
Petrucci
Opus
Sonata
Helsinki
Bravura

The last one, which you prefer, is the basis font for the upcoming Sternberg scoring application and the exemplification of the SMuFL standard.

Ah. Interesting, as I generally find Bravura a bit heavy on the page.

Yes, it’s deliberately heavy, as are the line weights designed to go with it. I would not have expected this to be better, but now having seen the results I must say it is a huge improvement in legibility! Especially at small size, and/or on screen, the latter becoming increasingly important throughout the music world.
