Some time ago I read somewhere in a news group (I think it was in a Music Research Digest) something about a music notation program for Sun/unix. I think the program (or the company that made the program) is called A.R. Editions. The article where it was mentioned was the end of a thread discussing programs for Mac and this program was only referred to as very good and then the article continued discussing SCORE. My questions are: Does this program exist? Is it really good? Where can I get it, and at what cost? (Is it perhaps ftp-able?) Any answers are appreciated!

Editions. ..... I spoke with A.R. about a year ago and they said that their system was solely for in-house use and not for sale. And, they said, if there were to make it available, it would be VERY expensive. A-R is in the music publishing business and obviously they dont want to give it away! However, it is a shame that there isnt something as powerful as FINALE or SCORE available on unix/x-windows workstations. But the marketplace runs the show, I guess. -- /\=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=/\ \/Richard Friedman (415)540-5216 | rchrd@well.sf.ca.us \/ /\Pacific-Sierra Rsrch (Berkeley) | or well!rchrd@apple.com /\ \/=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\/

There are a lot of us that feel that way. FINALE I know is made by CODA (a division of Wenger, I think) but who makes SCORE? -- Rich

Score comes from PASSPORT , 625 Miramontes St., Half Moon Bay CA 94019 415 726 0280. It was designed by Prof. Leland Smith at Stanford. Now here's a question for you: I understand that there are some packages out there that will allow one to emulate Macintosh programs on a SUN Sparc. (Perhaps they do it with an additional board or two?). So, does that mean I could run FINALE on my Sparcstation? Hmmmm. Anyone have any ideas about this? -- /\=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=/\ \/Richard Friedman RCHRD | rchrd@well.sf.ca.us \/ /\Box 9584 Berkeley CA 94709-0584 | or well!rchrd@apple.com /\ \/=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\/
