Hello fellow musicians! Have you ever found a sheet music book that looked really nice, but you weren’t completely convinced that it was what you wanted? Or maybe you found a book you really wanted, but didn’t have enough money for it at the moment. Whatever your reason for wanting sheet music, I have some good news.
Musicnotes, one of the world’s most popular sheet music dealers, has samples for all their digital songs. If you go to the site you are able to search through thousands of songs from many different genres. If you want you can purchase sheet music books, but the focus of this site is digital sheet music.
In order to download the sheets for a song you first need to have the required software. Luckily you get these programs for free on the site. There are a few available programs (Musicnotes player and Scorch) and they all work great.
After getting these programs you are able to search through the database and try free samples for every song. It is usually just the first page of the song, but it is enough to let you know if you like it or not. There are often different versions of songs, so feel free to try them all out until you find one you like. After learning the first page of a song, you can decide if you like it and then you can buy the full song’s sheet music.
This is an easy way to try out sheet music, and it is free. I personally like it because I am one of those people that lacks dedication and don’t always practice one song. One day I want to learn this song, but the next day I want to play something else. This site is helpful to me because I can keep trying different songs until I know I want a specific one and will stick with practicing it.
