Hello

I was lucky enough to get the entire Wikifonia database of 6,675 lead sheets in mxl format. This is over 300 more songs than available on another site. (Wikifonia is no longer in existence.) The file is only about 35mb. Here is the link:
http://www.synthzone.com/files/Wikifonia/Wikifonia.zip

You will need to download the free software Musescore to be able to view, transpose, edit, print pdf's etc. You will also be able to write your own songs with Musescore.

http://musescore.org/

Musescore also has some songs that can be downloaded.

Enjoy!

Thank you Scott, works brilliant, use the windows search engine to find individual songs by title.

Thanks' again

Col

I am using the XML Database that was on the Yamaha site, but can't get my Win7 search to pick up any songs there. I am using general search on the bottom left. Is there another way ?

Thanks very much, Scott...great resource indeed!

Hi

The Music-XML (MXL) format is supported by more than 170 programs! Ref: http://www.musicxml.com/software/

Maybe your current/favorite MIDI sequencing software is on the list.

Bernie,

After selecting file open use the search window at the top right. It should already be pointing to the folder that you put the files in. Works fine for me in W7.

Ian

Many thanks to Scott and Jørgen for your information.

So much to play with!

Boy, I feel foolish. I never noticed that search area before. To think of the years of wasted time scrolling.

Thank you very much
Bernie

Can I add my text files to this???I have a lot of these.

You mean to share ?

Thank you Scott.

Probably easier if you zip yours up separately and attach it to this thread.

Wo0w Thank you scott.
I like being able to look at any midi sheet music and add chord too. Ripper mate!

Awesome Scott!

Does anyone know if there is a way to setup the wikifonia folder on a computer, so that the song title is viewed before the artist?

Thanks

Well I answered my own request and changed the file names so that the song title only is listed (in alphabetically order).

IMO it's easier to locate a song by title. If interested it's a 32 MB zipped download:Wikifonia Zip File By Song Name

Sheets opens the same way in MuseScore with title and artist.

Larry ... that's great ... THANK YOU ...
good to see you on S-Z again ...

UPDATE:

I batch converted over 6000 archived songs of the former Wikifonia Sheets to .PDF Format in alphabetical order, by song title. You can browse /search, and download individual sheets, or download two complete (very large) folders, The .PDF sheets are all in the default key of the creator.

Also, still available are the Wikifonia sheets .XML Format in alphabetical order, by song title, for editing in programs such as MuseScore (free)

That's it...

Thanks so much Scott....good things originate from Florida. Regards Jim from downunder
