The future of music notation? Handwriting

Writing music with a computer keyboard is today much more common than handwriting. But things could change, thanks to Staffpad, a new music notation software just launched for Windows 10 devices. It takes advantage of the advanced pen and touch input found on Microsoft Surface and other compatible Windows 10 devices. StaffPad recognises the handwritten music and converts it into a beautifully typeset score which you can further edit, playback, print and share. More details HERE

Bow hair care
 
Every violinist knows that the bow is an indispensable tool, and that it requires the same consideration and care that we could give to the violin. Still, not always the bow gets the necessary attention: in particular, his hair needs a special care, not less than the one that we should have for our own hair.
