IDS: Using Sibelius
Today as part of my IDS project, I installed and experimented with the music composition software Sibelius.
Sibelius is a music writing software. It is the world’s largest selling music notation program, and allows the user to create, edit, and print music scores, as well as play them back using both default synthesized sounds and samples.
Sibelius is going to be extremely important for my inquiry going forward, as it will allow me to transcribe the music I write, and distribute and present it. Currently, I only have Sibelius First, which is still a very well-polished and easy-to-use app; I will later download the paid version when I need to accommodate more instruments into my pieces.
