Hello,

Nice. I'm not sure I can be present, but it's anyway a interesting project.

Regarding Rachmaninov, his work will enter public domain in Belgium (and most of European countries) in a few weeks, the January 1st following the 70th anniversary of his death.

Dear LilyPonders,
 
In about two weeks’ time, SCORA will make its premiere with the Leuven Alumni Orchestra (Leuven, BE). Dates are 14 December (20:15) and 15 December (15:00)
 
SCORA is a synchronised system for letting orchestra’s play from displays/tablets. The rendering is based on Lilypond, for various reasons. One of them being the quality of the rendering for which I do get very positive feedback.
 
I have 5x2 free tickets available for members of the LilyPond community who might want to see the system in action. Tickets are given out on a first-come-first-serve basis, and can be claimed at address@hidden. Given the cost, and that we are playing for a full house, I do expect you to show up if you claim tickets ;-) We don’t like to have empty seats.
 
Some links:
Short company intro: www.scora.net
Orchestra: www.lao.be
 
It’s an interesting concert, even without taking into account the SCORA system. The program:
·         Hugo Alfven – Midsommarvaka
·         Sergei Rachmaninoff – 3rd piano concert (!) with Liebrecht Vanbeckevoort (laureate of the Queen Elisabeth Competition in 2006) as pianist
·         Jean Sibelius – 5th Symphony
 
For the curious: yes, we have entered all that music in LilyPond. A daunting experience, especially the Rachmaninoff piano concerto. I need to figure out copyright issues (Rachmaninoff died just 70 years ago) to see if I can make the sources (or part thereof) available to show what LilyPond is capable of.
