How to find SMuFL compliant scores

Post by arcticranger »

New here and wondering if there are specific resources for locating scores using SMuFL fonts such as Bravura or Petaluma. I'm currently looking for Stravinsky's Agon but interested in all 20th century work.

You're only going to find SMuFL fonts in newly-typeset editions, since their SMuFL-ness is a function of encoding rather than design. You might be able to word-search notation programs as a proxy for fonts; anything done in Dorico will use Bravura by default, Finale 27 will use Finale Maestro, etc. But even then, many people don't include that information with their files. What is your goal? If your interest is typographical, have you tried going to https://www.notationcentral.com/ and comparing their fonts?
