From: James N. Greene <jgreene@BBNCCJ.ARPA> A muscian friend of mine has recently got a sales blurb on an appication called "Professional Composer" (TM) by Mark of the Unicorn in Cambridge, MA. Does anyone have any experience with it? Apparently it allows you to do professional score composition. You can create score paper, enter and delete all types of music symbols, and group notes and phrases with beams, measure lines, slurs, ties, etc. You can enter music, move and copy passages, transpose charts, change rhythm, merge voices and insert lyrics. It handles many different instruments at once, four measures to a page. Any information you may have will be greatly appreciated. My friend has extremely poor vision and writing music by hand is very difficult for him. He believes the Mac and Professional Composer will help him a great deal. Thanks much.
