The choice for older, more accomplished notators, this spiral-bound 9"x12" manuscript book contains 64 pages, with 10 staves per page, for standard music handwriting. The detailed guide spells out notation rules, from stem direction, to articulations, to ties and slurs, to notehead placement of 2nds and more, including how to punctuate lyrics! A reference which you will want to keep, even after the staves are filled.
