        I too tried to e-mail the original poster, but failed.  So here
goes YAP (Yet Another Post).

        Check out "Music Publisher", by Repertoire (sp?), an Australian
company based right here in my home town (believe it or not).

        It sells for around 5-600 ($AUS), should be obtainable in the US,
and is the best thing since the last best thing, according to my brother,
who uses it on a number of Macs (SE 1/20, SE 2/20, IIcx 5/40).  He is a
high-school music/drama teacher who does scores for productions using it,
as well as arrangements for the swing band he plays bass in (international
plug for the 14 piece "D. W. Waldorf Swing Orchestra").  It supports
sequencers, has multiple voices for play-back, etc., etc.

        Recently I have seen ads in the mags about a "try before you buy"
offer.  Sounds just perfect to me.  Sorry about being so light on the
details.  I would have to contact my brother/the company for more.

        Check it out.
