About Sheet Music

We offer Clairnote SN sheet music that is free to download, print, copy, modify, perform, record, etc. Almost all of these works were automatically converted from traditional music notation into Clairnote SN using LilyPond. Some of the LilyPond source files are from the Mutopia Project . Others have been converted to LilyPond format from ABC files from the Session . Others have been contributed by users. The ".ly" files have been modified slightly to achieve Clairnote SN output. The pieces have links to their sources where you can find the original version in traditional music notation (where applicable).

Searching and Filtering

Searches are "logical and" style and return results that match all of the search terms. You can also filter the results by collection, and for some collections you can filter the results further. For example, the Mutopia Project collection can be filtered by instrument, style, and composer. All these filters are "logical and" style, and filter out results that do not satisfy all of the filters.

Browsing

To browse, leave the search box empty and optionally use one or more filters. For the Mutopia Project collection the works will be listed alphabetically by composer's last name, then by opus, then by title. For the Session collection they are listed alphabetically by title.

Licensing

All of the files may be freely downloaded, printed, copied, distributed, modified, performed, and recorded, just like the original files. For example, see the Mutopia Project license page and the links to the license for each Mutopia Project piece.

Thanks

This library would not be possible without LilyPond, the Mutopia Project, and the Session — many thanks to everyone who contributes to them! Thanks also to lunr.js for the search functionality.

Disclaimer

Some of these files are works in progress and their quality may vary. Many have not been visually checked or edited for any potential layout problems after their automated conversion to Clairnote SN. (For example, manual tweaks and spacing adjustments for traditional notation that are not needed for Clairnote SN, or that were only needed for earlier versions of LilyPond.) Some settings of works from the Session are not included because of errors when converting them to Clairnote SN. Please feel free to contact us to report anything that needs work.
