Hey, sunflowah!
I could go on for hours about which software you should/should not use. Personally, I prefer using Sibelius since it has an amazing playback (the oboes actually sound like oboes) and it's quite easy to navigate once you're used to it but it is ridiculously expensive for students. In my HSC, I used NoteFlight which was free and super easy to use and got by with it for my composition. It has a terrible playback though so if you're using the notation software for composition, I'd recommend finding people to record a live of it instead of using their audio file. A few people I know also really recommend MuseScore but I'm not a huge fan since it's not as comprehensive as Sibelius and NoteFlight, and I have heard decent things about Finale despite never using it. Try them all out and see what works best for you! It really is all a trial and error process :)

Thanks Angelina! :)
If I were to record my composition live, where/how could I find people to play my composition?

Hey, sunflowah!
You could ask your teachers for any recommendations or any of your classmates if they can play the parts you have (if you've got a violist in your class, use them)! You can also post to different Facebook pages and ask if anyone would be interested in recording your composition. Usually people will expect a monetary compensation so just source from people around you first before you reach out to others! Good luck with finding people :)

Hello,
How do we plan out & structure a Q4 in the Music 2 paper?
Is it like an English essay where we need a brief introduction (thesis statement, introduce the piece/s to be discussed, composition date of pieces, etc.) and how many score references are recommended?
:) Thanks in advance
