Is there any software on the net that is really great for creating or writing scores? Anyone have any links?

Thanks

There are Wolfgang and Sibelius, but they are not free.

I use Sibelius for all my IB Composition work (IB = International Baccalaureate - https://www.ibo.org/)... It's great... does everything composition software should, but as with any MIDI software, if your sound card isn't good, the music sounds like crap.
