Printing beautiful music

Sadly, I've never learned how to play the piano, or read sheet music beyond the very barest of basics. But seeing how beautifully music can be typeset makes me wish I knew more. Perhaps some of my more musically gifted siblings might enjoy this software.

I emailed the link to my husband. We've been looking at Finale for years and lusting after it. I used it with the fire department when I volunteered there, and loved it then. I'd sure like to try this one out.

Bravo!

I need to look into this software... wow, could it be I have found a useful (ie beyond interesting) blog entry?

Thanks for the tip, Michael
