	"...what many, not only in Italy, but elsewhere, have long attempted in vain." Ottaviano dei Petrucci to the Duke of Venice 1498 *Last updated March 6, 2007* Some scores now available from Soundpost Named after the famous printer of musical scores, Ottaviano dei Petrucci (18 June 1466 - May 1539), the Petrucci Project is about digitalizing the wealth of music in libraries and archives around the world which was never published, or is long out of print, virtually inaccesible to most musicians. The Gutenberg Project for literature in English and the Miguel de Cervantes for Spanish literature projects have enlisted individuals and institutions to enter the data-- now there are over thirty thousand volumes in digital form, easily downloadable from any browser to your screen or printer. Similarly, musicologists, students, and institutions are already scanning or photographing printed musical material, and entering data for manuscripts too fragile for lending or photocopying. Already many works have been transcribed with several of the powerful programs now available for notating and editing music, including Finale,Score, and Sibelius. Soundpost has edited the Six Quintets by Padre Soler for organ or harpsichord and string quartet, now available fromSheetMusicNow , a Piano Trio by W.W. Gilchrist, the piano music and lieder by the late Mallorcan composers Jaume Mas Porcel and Bernardo Torrandell, a Te Deum for coro y orquesta del compositor mallorquin/catalan Pedro Tintorer, as well as other music, in score and parts. A recent project is the Grosses Stücke for 2 pianos by Franz Liszt, based on Songs without Words by Mendelssohn, based on the manuscript in the Schiller-Goethe Archive in Weimar. NEW (2003): Alice Mary (White Meadows) Smith (1839-1884) wrote 4 piano quartets, which I am now engraving. Nº2 in E-flat is done. The piano part runs to 60 pages, in 4 movements: Maestoso-Allegro, Adagio con dolore, Scherzo, and Finale-Allegro assai. If I had to characterize the music in a few words, I would have to agree with a quote in Cobbett´s Survey of Chamber Music: "Her forms were always clear and her ideas free from eccentricity; her sympathies were evidently with the Classic rather than the Romantic school. There is something of Mendelssohn in the piano part. We began with nineteenth century Romantic composers from the United States, France, Sweden, and Spain, where ever there are neglected composers worth hearing. Only in the year 2000, for instance, has George Chadwick been given the recognition due him by being elected to the Composers´Hall of Fame; Arthur Foote's music is being revived and recorded; Amy Beach is benefitting from the interest in women composers. And this is only scratching the surface.
