Kirill is back))


This concoction of mine might be of interest to some: 

http://www.sidorefa.com/sib2ly/

To my best knowledge, this tool is substantially more powerful 
than other existing Sib->Ly converters. 
You are welcome to try it out. 
The whole thing is absolutely free and open source, naturally. 

Written as a two-part suite: a dumb Sibelius plug-in that does nothing 
but dump the whole score into an .xml file, and the main part -- the
interpreter -- 
that does the translation into .ly 
The interpreter is written in Ruby, packaged as a standalone .exe for
convenience.

Best,
