#Finale printmusic 2010 grace note professional#
Perhaps not to the level of interpreting a symphonic score but at least to be able interpret and perform music at a reasonably professional level. I want and need to improve my reading skills. That means I need to improve my sight reading skills to the extent that I no longer need to memorize every piece of music I want to play. As I have grown older and my appetite for new and interesting music has out stripped my ability to memorize new music it has become imperative that I find a better way expand my repertoire.
Throw me a piece of sheet of music with a simple melody line and I have to laboriously work my way through the piece and commit it to memory. I confess that my ability to sight read has been limited. But the other side of that coin is to just think about the limitations that imposes on one’s repertoire and possibilities. Once you have the classic rock repertoire down pat you can roll on year after year without any need to develop or change. Present day rock/pop musicians are in a some what similar situation. There were the classic plays that once committed to memory could be trotted out year after year without any real need for change. In the very early days of Greek Drama that may not have been a problem. And for each new play or script the whole process would begin all over again. Just imagine the nightmare of rehearsals. How would he or she learn their scripts? Would they have to get some one to teach them the parts and try and memorize the entire performance. Just think about how professionally limiting that would be for an actor. Just think about that! Is there any other profession where professional practitioners would take pride in their inability to master a basic skill set ? Who has ever heard of say, an actor, who can’t read. Not only that, they often take great pride in their inability to read musical notation. Most amateur, and a sizeable number of professional guitarists, cannot read music. There is the old joke – “How do you stop a guitar player from playing? – The answer “You just give him a page of sheet music.” FINALE PRINT MUSIC 2014 for quickly creating customized notated music.
