Music engraving is the art of transcribing and formatting a musical work into a high-quality score. The role of the music engraver is to ensure, using precise editorial standards (layout, notation rules, spacing, etc.), that the composer's musical ideas are clearly expressed to facilitate reading and interpretation by musicians.
The term "musical engraving" comes from the artisanal technique of plate engraving, used since the 16th century, using intaglio to engrave musical symbols on lead plates using chisels, hammers, and punches.
Today, music engraving is done on computers using specialized software such as Dorico or Finale, allowing sheet music to be printed on demand. Music engraving requires patience, great attention to detail, and a deep respect for the composer's text. Combining a deep musical understanding, mastery of specialized software and rigorous knowledge of editorial standards, the engraver ensures the production of a clear score, faithful to the original work and perfectly adapted to the needs of the performers.
