Hi Marcus:
I too need a program that will notate music as well as
something that will take files from that notation and
create MIDI files, and play them.
As I look I see that there are many Linux music programs
available, but I have no experience with them. I took the
opportunity to look.
I looked in the the Packages.gz files from the Debian
Potato distribution. There many programs that refer to music.
Some of these in .../dists/potato/contrib/... are
musiclyr
pmx
In .../dists/potato/main/... some are
lillypond
abc2ps
abcmidi
rosegarden
In .../dists/potato/non-free/... some are
abc2mtex
musixtex
opustex
You can look in the Packages files to see the description
of the package.
I hope this helps, and if you decide to use one of these
I'd like to know which one, and how well it does the job.

Because the support is free, fast, and useful.
