I average at least one piece a week, and I sometimes get behind just the overhead to put my work up on my own site, let alone submit it to somewhere else. If I were to submit to an external site, the Werner Icking archive seems like a better choice than mutopia, because people who want music by a given composer or in a given style are used to looking there. Hajo> - Are there any hidden fences which I am not able to see? I don't know what fences you see. Just having to organize it for submission is one fence. Having to do it again if you make a correction or improvement is another one. Hajo> - Are the copyright-restrictions the reason for keeping Hajo> scores hidden? Not for me; I mostly transcribe music from the 16th and early 17th centuries, so copyright isn't an issue. Hajo> - Is Mutopia not worth contributing? For my purposes, probably not. If I figure out some particularly clever use of lilypond, I would believe I should contribute it to the LSR, but for a particular piece of music, I think it makes more sense to either have it on my own website or to contribute it to a more central place where people are looking for music. In other words, I don't expect people to look for a madrigal typeset in lilypond; I expect them to look for a three-part madrigal, or a madrigal by Thomas Weelkes, and mutopia doesn't particularly have a reputation in the madrigal-performing community as a place to go (unlike Werner Icking or CPDL). -- Laura (mailto:lcon...@laymusic.org http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 I have finally taught Dean that he can do anything he wants, become mayor of Denver, marry a millionairess, or become the greatest poet since Rimbaud. But he keeps rushing out to see the midget auto races. I go with him.
