If you purchase these resources, please ensure that you open them in a PDF reader. Opening them in a browser tends to distort the appearance. I also find that a magnification of over 150% makes viewing the comment boxes easier.
As with the individual staves, I’d like to think that there are no typos but should you come across one, you can choose a resource up to the value of £5 for free.
This is the full text of Stave Five, annotated as a PDF file. The annotations are not always as dense as you see in the cover image but I’ve aimed for a higher level of detail.
