This score causes MuseScore 4.1.1 to crash on playback, publish and export. It crashes near the beginning of M37

MS V4.1.1
OS Windows 10

I couldn't diagnose the problem, and for me playback crashed at m.33.

But this is what I did:
a) in MS4, export the score as MusicXML (uncompressed)
b) in MS3, open the MusicXML file, try playback which plays OK from start to end
c) in MS3, save the file in MS3 format
d) in Ms4, open and save the MS3 .mscz file, try playback which plays OK from start to end

Do try the MS3 or MS4 versions attached.

Obviously I can't tell where the OP got the score from....but I do believe there is an issue in the program.

Attached the score I created from scratch, just entered the notes for the Viola part and it crashes for me at bar 36 when the MuseSound is set to Violas. Changing the sound to Viola (Solo) prevents the crash.

Yes, your v2 score crashes on my system also. But something is not right. If it were a problem with the program, then every score I have ever made would crash. Here is a score I made that is similar to yours except that I didn't add any hairpins without dynamics at the end. It does not crash on my system.

Agree, your score does not crash. Interesting to hear how MuseSounds can't keep up playing the notes/producing sound (at least on my system). Also, adding some dynamic and hairpin to your score does not crash the program.

However, when I remove the hairpins from the v2 score it still crashes for me (in order to be able to remove I change the sound to solo Viola...otherwise I can't select them all, it crashes when I select the hairpin in the last measure). Another interesting fact, move all notes up by an octave.....(keep all hairpins/dynamics in place), and that also resolves the crash.
