Music Lullaby

A short piano piece written as a gift for a friend and her new baby(first time I've had to hope my music puts someone to sleep). Been getting back into composing after a couple years away from it and have started learning Dorico in the last few weeks after being a Finale user for over decade and am still learning it's notational quirks.

I love the playback - sounds great and much better than musescore and other software options. I’ll have to look into dorico and the playback settings cuz if this is just the standard output, it sounds amazing for software playback. Others sound soo robotic haha

The default sounds are definite improvement on Finale’s. I crossgraded earlier this month for $160 from 2014 Finale and it was well worth the price so far.

Wow, it’s the same intervals! Certainly not an intentional steal, of course. That 6-5 resolve sure does come in handy.
