Welcome to YOUR Sheet Music Library! Community Musicians, building a worldwide Community Music

Our online Library is not just about scores and sheet music; it’s about Culture and sharing love for Music on a worldwide level.

” For the first time in history, all the significant literary, artistic, and scientific works of mankind can be digitally preserved and made freely available, in every corner of the world, for our education, study, and appreciation and that of all our future generations. (…)”

“Digital technology can make the works of man permanently accessible to the billions of people all over the world. Andrew Carnegie and other great philanthropists in past centuries have recognized the great potential of public libraries to improve the quality of life and provide opportunity to the citizenry. A universal digital library, widely available through free access on the Internet, will improve the global society in ways beyond measurement.”

(This quote’s ref. at The Universal Digital Library)

Love for Music is our motivation.

The aim of this website is to provide beautiful and motivating sheet music, as well as tools and methods, for the piano and guitar players, and also music amateurs of all levels and ages. So everybody can feel the joy of playing music and also reading the scores while listening to the performances of other pianists and artists. Reading musical scores and listening to music are equally important as technique and music theory.
