Mutopia - Free Online Sheet Music | Print |

A musician or teaching a high school band?  Check out the Mutopia Project: http://www.mutopiaproject.org/
So we all have a very clear understanding my participation in instrumental or choral music is limited to the audience.  I consider it a successful concert if I do not clap between movements (you can't fool me!)  Luckily my children inherited their understanding and musical abilities from their mother instead of me.

With that said, check out Mutopia.  http://www.mutopiaproject.org/  As copyrights expire, people can duplicate and use sheet music without cost.  Mutopia is posting sheet music from Beethoven, Bach, and others. 

When I lasted visited there was almost 1000 works that could be downloaded (as PDF), and new music is being uploaded regularly.

If you want to contribute to the effort, they use a type setting tool called lilypond (http://lilypond.org/web/) that is also free.
