Musescore Examples: These exercises require basic knowledge of encoding; each exercise includes a new tool or two each! I also highly recommend taking advantage of the "Play" function!

Vocal Music in MuseScore

Early Vocal Music in MuseScore

Example 1: Chant "Ubi caritas"

Screen Shot 2020-07-27 at 10.44.28 PM.png


Tools you need:

  • Choosing an instrument (voice – which may or may not automatically add the optional vocal tenor clef on the clef)
  • If not, use “clefs” from the palettes. (click the original clef then double click the treble clef)
Clef.png


  • I prefer using ¼ for the time signature for the sake of spacing.
  • The time signature, stems, and the bar lines can be made invisible by selecting all -> staff/part properties -> advanced style properties.
