Free Sheet Music sites

Whistle

Does anyone know any good sheet music sites? I am in desperate need of sheet music that isn’t for trumpet…

Here’s a repost of my tune links, its a topic that comes up 2-3 times a year so you might find more with a search for Tune and Link.

If your looking for a tune that you have a title for JC's is the best starting point. They often have several versions of each tune with midi, gif, and abc formats. The midi's let you listen to the tune and identify by ear the song your looking for. The GIF format provides standard notation and the ABC format is great for quick sheets and imports into transcription software.

Hope this helps and …

Enjoy Your Music,

I usually use the Digital Tradition Mirror

http://sniff.numachi.com/~rickheit/dtrad/

which has words and music, or Richard Robinson’s Tunebook

http://www.leeds.ac.uk/music/Info/RRTuneBk/listings.html

which is helpful because it lists tunes by country, type, etc., but does not have words.

Hope this helps, and welcome to the board!

By the way…

What does Athena’s Henchman mean?

Isn’t that a tad morbid? :stuck_out_tongue:

6

Speaking of morbid…

It’s nice to have a fellow South Carolinian on board!

7

Athena’s Henchman means I am her Oracle. (no, I’m not insane, but it is a good bit for conversation.)

South Carolinians unite!

Speaking of which, is anyone else here from SC?
