With all due respect, and hope I am not offending anyone,
My goal of notating my own music is to give as much information as
possible so musician will reproduce my intention.  I write a lot of
details, even with text messages to clarify, and I put myself as sight-
reader when proof-read.  I even use highlighter for these info prior to
rehearsals so they won't miss reading them on sight-reading.

On the other hand, I definitely love to hear how my music is interpreted
with other musicians.  I might like it, or I give corrections to my
score.  This was where I needed Finale for in the first place!!

And on your other post:

I was also fortunate to see his powerful music live.  I saw him screaming
F word to musicians during pieces, but I was not fortunate enough to
witness him kicking someone out of stage.  You've got to be there to
witness that :-)
