About the event

This workshop, run by composer and engraver Anselm McDonnell, will explore workflow efficiency in Sibelius and suggestions for improving the speed with which you input your music.

It will also demonstrate:

  • Some of the main features in Sibelius that help in producing a professional looking score
  • How to design a house style and set up your layout, text and appearance tabs
  • How to create a neat and clear score (for those interested in self-publishing scores or improving their music's legibility for performance situations)

The workshop will last roughly an hour and will be followed by an informal Q&A. 

Note: This session is for MU members based in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Limited places will also be available to members outside the region, with priority given to S&NI members. To request a place, please email sni@themu.org
