Hi Raymond, this piece is atonal so there is no key signature and the conductor requested the score to be in concert pitch.
Wow, did you do this in MuseScore? Because the look is so different than the default appearance of MuseScore scores.

Hi Howard, the only change i made to the default style is the font, i changed it to cantarell, its a font from the sans serif family. Another thing that musescore does not do by default is putting the brackets spanning instruments from the same section and the extended barlines. If you use a template this gets done but when creating a custom ensemble you have to do it manually, i learned this the hard way when a teacher told me that he was going to set my score on fire or something because of the missing brackets and extended barlines, i am sure i will never send a score without the correct layout ever again :D
