Music
Editing (Copyediting)/Proofreading
Would you like to present or to publish an error-free
musical score? Are you working on an extensive project,
such as a guitar tutor, or a musicological treatise?
Perhaps you have even proof-read several times and still
find errors, or, you just want to check the content from
an unbiased reader on logical structure, consistency and
style.
A logical next step would be to employ the services of a
professional proof reader or copy editor! As a proof/copy
editor I would read your manuscript systematically and
uncover commonplace mistakes usually missed by the author.
On a more intellectual level, I could assist you with
defining the “concrete” aspects of a project from initial
idea to the finished publication.
My service is offered to publishers, authors or
institutions of all kind.
