Free music notation software

[ken cierp]

If you have a need, I recommend this free stripped down version of the popular "Finale" music composition software -- midi capable, easy to use and frankly I think amazing it is a free program.

I've been using it a while and agree with Ken - it does more things than I have need for and it's free..such a deal
