Dorico(/ˈdɒrɪk/) is a scorewriter developed and released by Steinberg for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS. Released on 19 October 2016,[1] it was created largely by former developers of the competing product Sibelius,[1][2][3] who were hired by Steinberg following the closure of Avid's London office in July 2012.[4]

The name honours the 16th-century Italian music engraver Valerio Dorico (1500–c.1565), who printed first editions of sacred music by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina and Giovanni Animuccia[5] and pioneered the use of a single impression printing process first developed in England and France.[6]
