A couple of years ago (well 6 actually) Alan Pope provided some
instructions on getting Sibelius Scorch working under Wine [1] .
Unfortunately following them now provides a system that though it
basically works crashes repeatedly with "memory corruption in windows
process heaps". Does anyone have any more up to date experience with
this?

I use the wine ppa for the latest wine and winetricks. Works a charm for
convoluted intricate Win programs under wine. I'm impressed that it has
evolved to the state it has today. Ric

I suppose the first question is simply: do you have the current
version of WINE installed and working, with Firefox running
successfully under it?
The other option would be VirtualBox with a very cut-down installation
of Windows in it. I use TinyXP for this purpose.

I believe so (it is actually a remote family member I am supporting).
I am going to get her to try the latest Wine from ppa to see if that
helps.

Colin,
I use for several years XP as guest in VMware to run the competing music
notation software "Finale" and it works like a charm. I use it
practically daily and have no problems. Even playing the written score
works (not always completely correct). I can even record music using my
electronic piano, the midi is then displayed as a score.
Wine is - in my experience - able to do everything but I haven't tried
in years.
A Linux/ubuntu alternative is MuseScore which is usable but misses still
some of the options Finale delivers, for me the show-stopper is the
absence of what is called in Finale "Scroll view" where all staves are
displayed continuously scrolling on your screen (i.e. 2 for a single
piano score, 4 for 2 piano's and 21 for a Big band score).
My experience,
Joep

Thanks for that, I will pass it on (it is my daughter who is the musician).
