[HANASHIR:7118] Re: Looking for a Software Program

[Barton1320 <Barton1320...>]

You have all been so generous with your help in the past, I'm sure many of 
you can help me out with the following request.  I'm looking for a software 
program that will accept a melody line from my keyboard and then add to it 
appropriate chords or, in my greatest hope, additional accompaniment.  It 
would be an added plus if the program could rewrite the music if I decide to 
change the key.  Would also need it printable as sheet music.

Please bear in mind that I am computer-challenged.  I'm sure there are many 
programs like this out there, but wanted to hear your recommendations based 
on experience.  

Our Youth Choir this year is quite young, and it helps to play out the 
melody, but a single line of notes leaves much to be desired in keeping their 
interest.  So I thought a full score might be beneficial.  Also, although we 
have two excellent guitarists who typically back up our choir at rehearsals, 
having this type of music available is a great back-up if they cannot attend.

Thank you all for your help.
