Vocalise, Op. 34, No. 14 is a song by Sergei Rachmaninoff, published in 1912 as the last of his Fourteen Songs, Op. 34. Written for voice (soprano or tenor) with piano accompaniment, it contains no words, but is sung using any one vowel (of the singer's choosing). It was dedicated to soprano Antonina Nezhdanova.
Although originally written for voice with piano accompaniment, I arranged this piece for Concert (Pedal) harp and is best played using the "GeneralUser GS.sf2" Soundfont by S. Christian Collins Software (http://www.schristiancollins.com/generaluser.php).

I think it's unusual to write like that , I mean it's usually first clef then key signature then time signature
anyway thanks for posting this amazing piece , I heard this piece many times but I didn't know it's for Rachmaninoff !
Sephr,
I agree about the clef etc...,
Sometimes MuseScore gets stuck in a "mode" and does that to me. I can sometimes fix it by deleting the measure and then re-adding it, but it didn't work this time. Let me try again and I'll re-post it if I can fix it.
Thanks,
