Which music scoring software should i use???

My composer did a great job scoring, but unfortunately I need to custom fit the tracks. That requires coming up with filler bridges etc.
I was thinking about using East West Choir or something like that, but understand that it is very hard to learn.

I'm looking for something smaller but with high quality Choir voices that I can learn more quickly.

Any suggestions?

If you go to my website you can hear the scoring that I have to replicate in small sections.

Here's the link: www.darkdisciplemovie.com

EastWest Symphonic Choirs is a sound library/instrument not scoring software. There are a lot of choir libraries these days, I have the EastWest one (plus the expansion) but some of the newer products from 8dio sound very nice (I have some of their other libraries, but not their choirs, and like them a lot). I'll admit I've done less with EastWest's Symphonic Choirs than I thought I would. But just having the library won't create audio, you still have to be able to write the music. That's the hard part. Pick any DAW you like, in the end if you can write music, the software is the easy part.

If you can write music and just need the right choir library, I'd say the best choice would be whatever the original composer used. Choir libraries don't mix and match all that easily. And if you don't have any experience writing MIDI music and using virtual instruments, no choir library is going to be easy to learn. They all are difficult and complex. Choirs are not a good place to start learning making music with virtual instruments.
 
You are probably better off editing than trying to compose filler. I'm assuming that for some reason you can't work with the composer?
So depending on how long and where and ? You might be able to stretch existing score to fill the gap. Or cut and edit. Any decent sound editor and/ or music editor can lengthen or shorten most music. It gets tricky on a score since you have to make sure you don't screw up the hits but it is done all the time.

As an experienced editor "composing" filler to match would be my very last choice.
