Summary: A good guide, but for an older version
Comment: Yes this is a well-written book, and yes I use it frequently when encountering a new technique I haven't tried yet. Sometimes it's faster than searching the "Sibelius Reference" PDF that comes with the software.

I was, however, disappointed that this book was specifically written for Sibelius 4.0. Not that the info contained is that out-of-date or inaccurate, but there are so many new features now in the current Version 5 that it makes this book incomplete for new Sibelius users just jumping in on Version 5 like I did. I did not see anywhere in the Product Description that told me I was buying an outdated manual. The book still is helpful, but I wish I could have waited for a version 5 guide to come along. (I heard one is "in the works" somewhere by a different author.)

Summary: Sibelius..A comprehensive guide to Sibelius software
Comment: This book is an excellent addition to the original Sibelius manual. The original manual that comes with Sibelius is extremely well written and is very effective at explaining the software. The authors do not try to replace, but to clarify the Sibelius manual and add additional shortcuts and illustrations to help all Sibelius users more quickly learn how to use the software.

Summary: no longer lost
Comment: As a new user of Sibelius and someone who is not real computer savy, I was so happy to hear about this book!! It was the only real comprehensive guide that I've found, and it has done wonders!!! It makes using the program not only easy, but fun! I bought this program so I could get my creative ideas down on paper and now I can! I highly recommend this book for any Sibelius user!!!
