Re: Survey: Large scores

Hi Urs (et al.),

I am regularly dealing with what I would consider “big” scores: for example, 
the Piano/Conductor scores of my musicals usually run over 100 pages.

I think my records so far are
    Vertically: 57 staves (x 200 measures; the french-ed score was 24 tabloid 
pages)
    Horizontally: 112 pages (the Piano/Conductor score to a recent, shorter 
version of “Robin Hood”); the full score would be larger, of course, but I’ve 
only generated them movement-by-movement so far (for extra-Lilypond reasons).

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
