This course teaches the fundamental rules and procedures of music notation and how to apply them. Course begins with hand calligraphy: proper procedures for printing various symbols of music notation. These skills will then be transferred to the computer via the two most popular scoring programs: Finale and Sibelius, stressing the commonalities of computer music notation. Students will learn to copy complex music for multiple instruments and voices by hand and in both notation programs.
