The abrupt announcement by MakeMusic to discontinue Finale, a cornerstone in the music notation industry since 1988, marks a significant turning point for many composers who have long relied on this vital tool. For composers, notation software is deeply embedded in the expression of their artistic language, their creative routine, and their professional workflow. The transition to alternative software is not a mere inconvenience; it represents a major disruption that can affect productivity, financial stability, and artistic output. The high costs associated with acquiring new software, undergoing training, and converting extensive libraries of existing works will exacerbate existing inequities in the field.
The lack of outreach and inadequate financial and technical assistance from MakeMusic underscores the need for a more thoughtful response to the profound impact of this decision on its users. We connected with four artists in our community to ask for their advice and guidance navigating this transition.
