MuseScore makes it easy to get your score on paper, but just as importantly for the 21st century musician, MuseScore provides great facilities for sharing scores electronically

On Your Computer

MuseScore is a WYSIWYG program, so if looks good on screen, it will look even better on paper. You can print directly from the program, or you can file format to PDF and to the PNG and SVG graphic formats. And make no mistake: the quality of the output from MuseScore is every bit as good as that from the expensive commercial programs. Click the excerpt below for a sample PDF file generated by MuseScore.

The snippet creator plugin allows you to easily create a graphic file containing just the music on the page - with the empty space around it automatically cropped away - to facilitate insertion into word processing or other documents. There is also an extension to automate the process even further when using the open source word processors LibreOffice or OpenOffice.org .

MuseScore can import from and export to the file format format, which allows scores to be shared between different notation programs. So if you have already created scores in Finale or Sibelius, you can export to MusicXML from there, then import into MuseScore and continue working on it with your notes and most markings intact. And you can also export to MusicXML from MuseScore so your scores can be accessed by people who use other programs. MuseScore also imports and exports MIDI. And because MuseScore is open source, people often contribute converters to and/or from other specialty formats (eg, ABC, LilyPond, Capella, Band-in-a-Box, Impro-Visor). In fact, MuseScore may well be the most well-connected music notation program ever!

Online

The most exciting sharing facility provded by MuseScore is the musescore.com score sharing web site. Create an account there and you can upload your scores directly to their server, which then allows others to view, play, print, or download your score. A full set of social networking tools are provided, allowing you to share scores on musescore.com just as you might share picture audio on SoundCloud, pictures on Flickr, or videos on YouTube. One of the coolest features of musescore.com is that your score automatically animates when it plays back, so viewers can follow along more easily. You can even embed the animated score in other web sites, like this:

The site also allows you to synchronize your score with a YouTube video, so you can have an animated score follow along with any recorded performance. Click the image at right to see this feature in action.

In addition, MuseScore provides the ability to upload audio directly from MuseScore to SoundCloud via a plugin . So it's just a couple of clicks to get from completing your score in MuseScore to this:

If you have an iPad, check out the MuseScore Sheet Music Viewer app, to download and display your scores from musescore.com. Also from MuseScore: the free Open Goldberg Variations app, which contains the full score and a professional recording by Kimiko Ishizaka of Johann Sebastian Bach's timeless Goldberg Variations, with real time animation of the score as you listen to this amazing music.
