Locating Scores (for a Magazine Article only)

With a score : article. Without a score : interview or review.

• Begin by searching for a score for the type of piece you are looking for.

  • • • 1,000 Recordings to pick & then find the score

      • World Sound Matters - free

      • www.imslp.org - usually free

      • https://www.8notes.com/world/ - usually free

      • http://www.free-scores.com/ - search by ‘music styles’, usually free

      • https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/ - for free chord charts

      • https://archive.org/details/fakebooks&tab=collection - for free lead sheets

      • http://www.mutopiaproject.org/ - free sheet music

      • ぷりんと楽譜 - good website for Japanese pop songs but need to pay

      • Google search - you might have to purchase it

• If you choose without a score, you must choose a piece that is aurally outlined in:

  • • • World Music, A Global Journey

      • World Music, Traditions & Transformations

      • American Popular Music

      • Listening to Music

• Find a recording of the same version of the song on CD or buy it iTunes

  • • • You CANNOT use a YouTube video, you must OWN the song & have the file digitally downloaded.

      • Make sure it’s the same version of the song as your score by checking the first pitch, name of composer &/or arranger.

• Work on your Discography by adding each song when you choose it.
