@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:52 PM) dawg i gotta roll. ttyl
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:51 PM) the obbligato piano part in Britten's opera The Turn of the Screw is full of these insanely-written flourishes across the staves, like stop
@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:51 PM) i like how it looks aesthetically, but I realized it's hard to get a sense of contour when the stems go through 2 staves
@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:50 PM) 'power saver'
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:50 PM) heh that's a very Romantic way to notate things
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:50 PM) am in a low-energy period
@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:50 PM) lol, i wrote like 4 pages of stuff notated like this before realizing how impractical it is https://www.box.com/...h1y9469t5gb64w3

@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:48 PM) yeah it definitely is
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:48 PM) though I don't care because I haven't written anything at all lately
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:48 PM) unless that's what you mean
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:48 PM) i think it's harder to draw multiple flags curved
@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:45 PM) i've been using a lot of shorter note values lately as well, so the issue is compounded when drawing 3+ flags at a time
@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:45 PM) same with me
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:42 PM) and i try and keep my computerized scores as close as possible to my handwriting style so
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:41 PM) i do that because they are easier to draw lololol, now I can just take a ruler instead of stressing over the perfection of my curves
@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:41 PM) i recently adopted the former style. a game-changer, 4sure
@  Cadenza91 : (19 May 2013 - 11:40 PM) do you remember the moment you were like 'i should do angular flags instead of wavy/curved ones'
@  Voce : (19 May 2013 - 11:40 PM) or lots of angular flags
