You can find free sheet music and chords. Sheet music is a hand-written or printed form
of musical notation; like it's analogs books, pamphlets, etc. The medium of sheet music
typically is paper, although the access to musical notation in recent years includes also
presentation on computer screens. Sheet music can be used as a record of, a guide to,
or a means to perform, a piece of music. Although it does not take the place of the sound
of a performed work, sheet music can be studied to create a performance and to elucidate
aspects of the music that may not be obvious from mere listening. |

Authoritative musical information about a piece can be gained by studying the written sketches
and early versions of compositions that the composer might have retained, as well as the final
autograph score and personal markings on proofs and printed scores. When the separate
instrumental and vocal parts of a musical work are printed together, the resulting sheet music is
called a score. Conventionally, a score consists of musical notation with each instrumental or vocal
part in vertical alignment. The term score has also been used to refer to sheet music written for
only one performer. The distinction between score and part applies when there is more than one
part needed for performance. |
