MelMack MusicFantastic!I just recently found this podcast and I am totally hooked. I LOVE it! I have scored lots and lots of music yet have already learned several new things from the 3 episodes I have listened to so far. Thank you!!
-
BobMarksWhat a Fabulous Podcast!As one who began doing “music copying” as a teenager back in the early 1970s, I finally have found like-minded people who combine the pen & ink history and current digital technology into an informative and fascinating discussion. Thank you for giving us this deep-dive into notating music. Every episode is a treasure.
-
Timothy RollsExcellent information!This show has the perfect mix of humor and information. Phillip and David both have a great deal of knowledge of the software they discuss, and always have great suggestions on tricky topics. I highly recommend this to my students.

ShaunTrumpetGreat InformationIt’s great to be able to learn about these musical/technological concepts while driving or engaged in other work. I come away with a couple more ideas each episode to make my processes more efficient, learn about the industry more in general, and find out new tips and tricks.

BigSax10Great Podcast!I’ve been a big fan of NYC Music Services for a couple of years now. Love your YouTube content, blog, templates, and other products. I can’t believe I have only just started listening to your podcast. I’ve got some catching up to do. Love what I’m hearing and learning! Happy New Year all! Onward and upward!!

athafranAdvice from the bestPhilip Rothman’s Scoring Notes website is a gem and his podcast is no different. The House Style Podcast was outstanding and looking forward to more!!
-
DavemckayjazzScoring HerosI’ve followed Philip Rothman’s posts long before he transitioned from Daniel Spreadbury’s Sibelius blog. Scoring Notes coverage of all things notation has been the greatest single resource for me personally and for my students. He and David MacDonald are “Scoring Hero’s.”
-
Ehler4Excellent contentNice variety of guests. Whether you’re more interested in the adjacent tech platforms, specific parts of the music industry and their relationship with engraving, or just good engraving, you’ll find a lot to like.
-
AlexisVerkautenExactly my kind of peopleI had only just discovered the blog before I the podcast launched, and as a podcast fan, I was delighted. These are exactly my kind of people, and it’s awesome to hear people talk about stuff that they really know about that is exciting and relevant to me and my life!
-
hislightscribeA Stellar Checklist!Thanks, guys! I had to chuckle at all the mistakes that you mentioned. Like looking in a rear view mirror. This will help anyone clean up their act!
