I am sending you an excerpt from the presentation of the MUSICAL VIDEO WRITING COURSE WITH MAKEMUSIC FINALE; a video tutorial completely in Italian dedicated to the most widespread music notation program in the world (22 and a half hours compared to the 7-8 hours -on average- of other software such as Photoshop, MS Office, AutoCAD, for which it is vast)

In detail:
- 7 parts divided by general topics
- 32 high-quality videos
- Over 22 hours of video content
- Clear and exhaustive explanation of all functions, even the most complex ones, with numerous examples and images
- 25 files in MUS format and other attached content for exercises
- And additionally two hard-to-find gifts: the font for chord symbols in Italian and the font for elision marks in sung text, created exclusively for this course!

For the "Finale" program, there was no manual in Italian since the days of "Nuovo Finale con brio", published by G. Piermarini back in 2002; the only alternative consisted of consulting the ponderous and impractical official manual, translated into our language by the Midimusic staff.

Practically speaking, this type of multimedia publication, besides being an absolute novelty for Italy, fills a void that is deeply felt by Italian users.

There is also the possibility to purchase the product in separate chapters, so that users who already know the program and wish to deepen their knowledge of only certain functions can buy only the parts that interest them.

Link to the site, I think Giorgio (a subscriber to pianoconcerto.it) will appreciate it, good luck.

In effect, I think ScalaQuaranta will be very happy about this

Obviously, it's just a joke, Scala

I also heard the news, it was "suspected" that a book would be published, but instead it is a multimedia course

I took the liberty of modifying the link in your message which pointed to an error page on Facebook. It should be fine now.

It would be interesting if Giorgio also wrote a few introductory lines here about his course.

I will contact him on Facebook.

Good morning everyone, and thanks to Zazza for forwarding the news to this important forum

I don't think I have much to add to the words of his post; I only say that I was truly surprised by the flood of comments, emails, and various compliments that have followed one after another without interruption since this morning! Sales are also meeting expectations excellently.

Effectively, the work is very comprehensive; I believe I have truly illustrated all areas of the software (even the most... secret ones), thanks also to the nearly 15 years of teaching now behind me and the numerous editorial works done specifically with Finale (all versions from 1994 onwards...).

A whole series of interesting perspectives is now opening up. First and foremost, I would like to follow the suggestion and invitation of some colleagues and begin, perhaps in November, taking the course... on tour.

By relying, in effect, on music schools (public but also, above all, quasi-state and private) in the area, which would guarantee me technical and logistical support, I could concentrate the content into blocks of 3 or 4 days (12 intensive hours are sufficient for a good basic course, and the same for an advanced one).

In fact, I will take this opportunity, and if among you reading there are directors or teachers of institutes with a good influx of students, please—should you be interested—contact me privately (info@giorgiobussolin.com) so we can define any potential collaborations.

For the moment that is all, thank you again; I hope to have you among the users of my course and I am obviously available for explanations and clarifications.

A warm greeting

Giorgio
