Notation question

[Hector Pascal]

Hi all,
I am notating this bar of piano music and am wondering if my use of cross staff notes and reverse stems is ok? Suggestions for improvement are welcome. Possibly the height of the beams needs a bit of correction... and also the final LH Bb needs an accidental, and my slurs are a bit ugly. Apart from those things, am I on the right track?

Cheers,
Hector.

I think you are definitely on the right track.

Suggestions: Finale doesn't do a good job of spacing the two notes that play immediately before and after the change of stem direction for cross staff notes. I expand and contract the spacing as necessary using the beat chart. Also, the beams should be centered between the two groups while also avoiding the staff, if possible. The beams for beat four are too low. You should remove the whole measure rest in the upper staff since neither hand is resting. And while your staff spacing is acceptable, I personally narrow the spacing between the staves a little in cases like this so that there is greater continuity as the notes pass from hand to hand.

Thanks, John! You have been very helpful, especially regarding the expansion and contraction of the stem spacing immediately before and after the change of stem direction. I had not thought to tweak that spacing.
Cheers and thanks,
Hector.
