Excellent. It was done by Daniel Spreadbury, guessing from the PDF file info box (author is "dspreadb"). It's good to know -- and the kludge to create the curved staves looks exactly the same, too. Two hours is about what it took to do the original up to that point in Finale. I wonder how much faking it was involved? Does it have the same problems in doing so much graphical fooling around? (A big problem was to get the flute line to travel down the score.) I'm guessing, based on the unnecessary courtesy accidentals, that this was done as a vertical arrangement of single measures with divider lines as barlines. Very good, and an impressive selling point for Sibelius. One hopes Finale monitors this list, at least a little. My purchase fingers are itching.
