I just thought this tip may help. Some of you have correctly noticed
that the quick start and new score wizard are not yet particularly
forthcoming with information when you are using a screenreader. There is
a workaround.
 

Firstly, when the application starts and displays the quick start, press
control plus comma to display the preferences dialog.

Next, go down the categories list box (which starts with display, files
and so on) until you get to "Other". Tab through this page until you get
to the "Show Quick Start dialog" checkbox. Uncheck this, hit OK on the
dialog and restart Sibelius.

 

Next time it starts you will be presented with a blank score rather than
the quick start. From here you can use the backstage to access your
recent files, or you can add instruments and other operations via the
ribbon that the new score wizard otherwise offers.

 

I hope that helps.

 

Regards,
