I couldn't agree more. Setting up whole scores with a music notation
program is very simple given a little inspiration and time. I
probably ought to indicate where the scores on my Web site come from
but I don't because of the occasional zealot in the music publishing
industry who thinks that works in the public domain are completely
copyrightable with a change in slur here and an alternate notation
for a crescendo there. Just for that reason I make sure, as the mood
strikes me, to change <<< to cresc., and vice versa, put in all the
staccatos in lieu of "simile" and occasionally write out trills with
32nd or 64th notes. No self respecting music publisher would dream
of claiming that I had stolen his or her edition. It is Ollie's
edition all the way! Copying is encouraged! 8-)

I'm working on a deliciously sweet project right now. It should be
ready for download in less than a month. My source came through
again! She hasn't failed me yet. This one took 3 months for her to
find, but she did it. A mention of it first occurred on this list
last September or October so I thank all of you folks for being such
good sources of information. The microfilm arrived last week and it
is a lovely piece. 'Nuff said. Watch this space!
