Sibelius 5
Feb 7th, 2008, 12:42
Sibelius is a great piece of software, very professional and powerful, but the video tutorial bundled is more like a quickstart guide than a real training. There are tons of features and work techniques that should be deeply explored.
A tutorial on Sibelius, on my opinion, should have a strong musical educational value. Obviously introducing all the functions, menus, setting, layouts etc.. but with an extensive chapter(s) with scoring examples for some standard situations as a quartet, a small orchestral ensemble, a pop song, a jazz combo, a vocal choir etc... I'd like to see also a chapter with examples of use for all the plugins.
The final goal should be learning the use of the software and also some basic music writing and arranging techniques.
A dream or a possibility?
cheers
