Dear all,

I would just like to add that the interfacing between MEI and VexFlow is
achieved through a JavaScript library originally written by Richard Lewis
at Goldsmith's, University of London (
https://github.com/ironchicken/MEItoVexFlow), which has been extended for
the project.

Best wishes,
Raffaele
