The second volume of Alexander Street's critically acclaimed Classical Scores Library will bring together 200,000 pages at completion. It's the first online score collection for libraries that's composed mostly of in-copyright classical scores from major composers and editions. Many items that are unavailable in print in typical library collections will now be online for viewing and study, including the scores of many composers who self-publish.
Classical Scores Library: Volume II complements and expands on Classical Scores Library with a new focus on major composers not represented in the first collection; new contemporary scores by major living composers around the world; and critical editions of compositions that are lesser known but often studied.
The collection is targeting composers such as Michael Tippett, Hugo Wolf, Claude Debussy, Erik Satie, Gabriel Fauré, Maurice Ravel, Charles Ives, Andrew Schultz, Moya Henderson, Nicholas Vines, Giovanni Sammartini, Michael Haydn, Carl Orff, and many others.
As with the first volume, coverage of score types is comprehensive, with full scores, study scores, piano and vocal scores, and other formats. Users can access full scores go directly to individual movements, and the scores can be printed for personal or class study and notation.
Classical Scores Library: Volume II is available as a standalone resource or seamlessly integrated with the original Classical Scores Library if you have both collections. Taken together, the two volumes will offer 600,000 pages of scores through a cross-searchable interface. All the scores are also cross-searchable within the entire Music Online package of audio tracks, scores, reference texts, and performance videos.
