ConcertWare+MIDI Version 4 was just released which was a major rewrite
of the program. It supports the Sonata font, has much improved print
quality and control, including text which sticks to the notes, chords,
polyphonic chord entry from a synthesizer, multiple staffs, MIDI macros,
multi-voice editing, supports color on Mac II, etc.

I will refrain from passing judgement on how well it does any of this
since I was involved with the original ConcertWare+ (but not with this
upgrade). I do think it's appropriate for me to let people know it
exists, however! (Price was raised to $150 for this version.)
