Theatrical Sound Designers and Composers Association

On Thursday, September 5th from 4:00-5:00 pm EDT, we’ll meet on Zoom for a Virtual Technical Workshop with Maestra Jen Green. Q&A to follow!

Do you need to switch from Finale to Dorico, or are you simply curious about what Dorico has to offer? Join us for an engaging and insightful workshop led by Jen Green, an orchestrator, arranger, and seasoned musician who made the notation software transition herself. In this workshop, Jen will share her personal journey of moving from Finale to Dorico, offering reassurance to those feeling daunted by the change.

Explore an overview of Dorico’s features, learn valuable tips and hacks to ease the transition, and gain insights from Jen’s firsthand experiences as a Dorico convert. Whether you’re a seasoned Finale user or new to notation software, this workshop will provide you with the tools and confidence to make the switch smoothly.

This workshop event is open to the public! We encourage our members, supporters, and community at large to RSVP. Register here, and at 3:00 pm EDT on the 5th you will get an email detailing how to log into the Zoom meeting that will start at 4:00 pm EDT.
