Cantus Firmi/Counterpoint
I have an counterpoint assignment where I have to compose a cantus firmi. Some of the requirements are:
- One line must appear in a major key whereas the other must appear in a minor key.
- Keys used may not have less than two sharps or flats in the key signature.
- Your answers must be legible and notated using music notation software.
What I gathered is that the composition has to be notated on 2 staves with 2 different keys (My pick: D major and G minor? I'm a 1st Year, Don't judge me :( . I'm not sure how to change the functions in MuseScore to be played at different keys. Is it possible?
I uploaded my assignment so I can ask anyone if it is possible to do these tasks in MuseScore.

Look here: https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/key-signatures
A little bit down on the page you will see ADDING A LOCAL KEY SIGNATURE CHANGE TO A SINGLE STAFF.
I believe that will do what you want. The rest of your assignment is way above my pay scale!
