Scores

Why?

Why do I present these files? Several reasons: I always hate it that I can never find a decent string quartet when I look for one. If there's a(n uncopyrighted) piece of music out there, I ought to be able to find it. I think that anyone ought to have access to Beethoven and Mozart and the like (actually, this ought to apply to away from the internet, too, but I don't have the resources to dedicate to that). I also think that, although Noteworthy Composer does have a number of limitations, most of these are relatively minor and can be worked around. I am promoting this product because it really is a great deal; you get a near-professional music program for less than a computer game. And it prints some very nice scores, particularly if you take the time to add special touches. Lastly, I am in the process of inputing these scores for my own use, and once they're in it takes very little effort to share them with you (plus, I then have an off-site archive which is very useful in case of flood, fire, earthquake, etc.)

What you can do

Here's all that I ask, and this is merely a request, you are (of course) under no obligation to do so, but if you have sheet music that is not copyrighted or that the copyright has expired on (I'm thinking mainly of classical stuff that never had a copyright), then enter it in and send a copy to me (emeraldimp@lycos.com) or the NWC Scriptorium. There's so much music out there, so much that can be shared with the world! Thank you. *steps down off soapbox*
