#ScribesAndMakers 13. March: Shameless self-promotion day

Besides all my Open Source work (and the very occasional very tiny fanfiction attempt) I publish Free Sheet Music in digital editions, beautifully renderer as PDF, but also available as MusicXML and MIDI for conversion to Braille music notation as needed.

Voices from the choir et al.:

  • "finally, legible tenor notes!" (everyone with bass clef allergy)
  • "it’s easier on the eyes due to the larger size" (older ladies in choir)
  • easy to transpose (few clicks)
  • simple enough to make extra versions for the conductor and accompanist (closed score (two systems only, like for piano) with text below, so the pianist can follow the regie instructions)

https://mbsd.evolvis.org/music/free contains my Free Sheet Music contributions mostly from Public Domain scans (some more recent ones were made under permission from the composer/arranger); I also produced https://mbsd.evolvis.org/music/misc/ and dozens of pieces I cannot show because they are licenced works.

I do this for myself and share with the world, but I could imagine digitally engraving some sheet music for YOU for a small donation or something. (My speciality is vocal scores, but I can do piano accompaniment mostly, might need help with optimal distribution of notes to hands. Or just type in from a pre-existing score. I do need pitches, no aural transcriptions.)

Hello #MusiciansDay!

I make digital editions of (mostly) public domain music, when I or someone else need them for choir or something. Most of the time, they’re pretty faithful to the sources, with variations coloured differently, though sometimes I have to mix sources or change things for $reasons.

What I can publish is here (or in ../misc/ for stuff under more questionable licences), in Mu͒seScore Studio 2 or 3 format and exported to MusicXML, MIDI, MP3, PDF plus some metainformation.

The score stylesheets I’m using and some utility stuff can be found in ../Mscore2/, ../Mscore3/ and ../resources/.

This is my little contribution to the #FreeSheetMusic movement.

Licencing is mixed liberal (some I can relicence when asked, some I cannot); for CC0, due to my legislation, § 2 does not apply (except in the case of § 3 Satz 2 UrhG or similar) because licensor cannot legally waive copyright; for all other CC licences, my interpretation guidelines are to be used (tl;dr: “AI” output is a derived work). I normally dual-licence CC0 with MirBSD these days because some distros stopped allowing CC0 at least for some work types, and The MirOS Licence is also usable for both code and nōn-code and certified by all relevant institutions and standards.
