Thanks for your suggestion. I do occasionally look around at other
MIDI/notation tools but I haven't come across Denemo before. I will give
it a try... in 2 months :)
Cheers,
Jonathan

Surely the NWC is a nice tool, I used it for many years, but it depends on what you
need:
If you need primary a good notation: Use Denemo. It can do everything what NWC can do,
but more and better. And of course the Notation Output is superior because of Lilypond.
If you need decent Midi: Use Denemo in 2 months.

I've never found anything I like as much as Noteworthy Composer.
Besides, the point of Linux is that I'm free to choose, right?
Indeed. Wine is Linux software, ALSA is Linux software, and your kernel
is Linux. I don't believe in limiting my options on principle when my
essential work is at stake.
As it happens, after trying various options under Wine I find that I can
achieve my goals with free& open-source software under Linux. Someone
else's mileage will certainly vary as their goals differ from mine.
When tools like Wine are available it seems foolish to not use them,
especially if they make your creative work possible.
Best,
