Well, that was weird. I also posted this info and then got a message that my post had a "forbidden html tag".

It only allowed me to post if I removed this bit but I can't see any problems - not that I'm fluent in html.


I have a few tricks when looking for sheet music/music notation.

Firstly I do a Google image search for "sheet music tune name". I usually find what I am looking for unless it is still in copyright, in which case I would buy it if I want it.

If that fails, I try to find an ABC of the file, e.g. at The Session site, copy the ABC's, go to an ABC site like MandolinTab, paste it in and convert it to notation.

If I can find a midi file, that's really good because I can save the file and, open it in my music notation software - Noteworthy Composer is free, but I paid about $30 for the full version because it is a good bit of kit.

In Noteworthy I can print the music, or muck around with it first by transposing to a different key, or adding or taking away some of the music lines. I can save it as a Noteworthy file or as a midi file. The musical world is your oyster with software like that. Thanks Noteworthy people! You're the best!
