MuseScore is a WYSIWYG music notation editor for writing and printing scores, with a built-in mixer and synthesizer for instant previews. It supports large complex scores, fast note input, and is available on Debian, Ubuntu, and other Linux distributions. The program allows users to create new scores from scratch, enter notes with the mouse or keyboard, and edit them easily. MuseScore also supports various file formats, including MusicXML, WAV, FLAC, and Ogg Vorbis, and can export scores to PDF, SVG, and other formats. The documentation is well-written and thorough, but the program requires a fair amount of horsepower to run smoothly.

LilyPond is a music score engraving program that produces beautifully engraved scores. It is driven from the command line, but is user-friendly and easy to learn. Users can create plain-text input files to generate scores, and add titles, composers, and lyrics to the scores. The program uses a specific syntax, with version numbers, headers, and blocks delimited by curly braces. LilyPond can produce high-quality scores with precise control over layout and typography.
