RESOURCES FOR MUSICIANS |
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +INTERNET RESOURCES FOR MUSICIANS Parish musicians in small, newly formed or growing congregations are always on the look out for new musical resources. The Internet offers a host of resources for parish musicians - and they are mostly free! Check out the following:
* Library of Congress - Music for the Nation: American Sheet Music, ca. 1820-1860, 1870-1885, http://memory.loc.gov. This huge database of the archival files of the U.S. Copyright Office contains over 62,000 pieces of sheet music. The database is searchable by subject, instrument, title, composer, style of music and/or type of choir.
* Choral Public Domain Library—www.cpdl.org. With over 9,000 scores by more than 1,300 composers, something can be found for any size choir. The database may be searched by composer, title, era ( chant to modern), style (anthems to oratorios) and liturgical season (Advent to Quinquagesima). Most scores are printable in multi-page PDF format.
* Werner Icking Music Archive - http://icking-music-archive.org. Classical music is predominant in this large database maintained in Denmark. Searchable by composer, the collection features scores from Europe’s most familiar names. The database is updated daily and provides many pieces for organ, choir and instruments.
* Hymns of Martin Luther– The Online Library of Liberty,
http://oll.libertyfund.org. A free PDF version of an 1884 edition of 36 hymns by Luther in German/English. This is a historic and authoritative resource that may be used by choirs and congregations. These hymns are particularly appropriate for special services.
* Free Christmas Carol Music - www.christmascarolmusic.org and http://Christmas songbook.net. Between the two sites there are more than 100 pieces of free sheet music for Christmas—secular and religious, SATB, melody line with chords, guitar lead sheets and transcriptions for many instruments. This is handy for preparing service booklets for “lessons and carols of Christmas,” children’s programs, caroling groups, and congregation sing-alongs. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + | | | |
