“An incredible aspect of what it is to be a musician in the 21st century.”
“I have to admit that at least with one of the other music programs I’d looked at, I just felt I didn’t have three weeks of my life to learn it, while with Sibelius I felt that in a fairly short period of time, I’d be able to make it happen – as was exactly the case."
Pat Metheny, jazz guitarist & composer

Bob Mintzer
“I never in my wildest dreams thought that I could be dragged away from my lifelong composing tools – pencil, paper and keyboard. I’ve now discarded all of them in favour of Sibelius - the best musical associate I’ve ever had”
