PRESENTING "VIOLIN SHEET MUSIC CD 1", which contains the public domain sheet music for over 600 pieces--4000 pages conservatively estimated--for violin or playable by violin alone or in combination with other strings and/or piano, including published collections, sonatas, concertos, and duos & trios using violin (no quartets). My (i.e., John D. Howard's) cd presents a great many shorter pieces suitable for the early 'grades' as well as the work of famous composers, arrangers and violinists like Cui, Elman, (for Kreisler, see my Kreisler sheet music cd on ebay), Lehmann, F. David, Ysaye, Vivaldi, etc. It also includes many pieces previously unavailable, such as the TOMASINI (Haydn's concertmaster) Duo Concertante in Eb for 2 vns. Priority for inclusion was given to material not available elsewhere, such as on the "CD Sheet Music Series". The cd is the result of scanning, processing and collecting by me since the year 2000.

The sources for the above cd include: items from my library; items from many other libraries, including interlibrary loan; items from colleagues; and items downloaded from several sites, including the Library of Congress, Creative Commons sources, Mutopia, Werner Icking, but most importantly the University of Rochester's Sibley Library at https://urresearch.rochester.edu . (With one or two exceptions, every page from the Rochester/Sibley Library files was reworked.) A disadvantage with the Mutopia and Icking offerings is the often poor layout resulting in very inconvenient page turns.

Presenting "KREISLER SHEET MUSIC CD", which contains the printable image files of 91 pieces, most for violin & piano (with eight of these transcribed for cello & piano); some pieces utilizing voice or piano; two pieces for piano; the 1919 musical "Apple Blossoms"; and the 4 parts for the String Quartet in a minor--all by beloved violinist Fritz Kreisler (1875-1962). All pieces come with all "parts", i.e., violin parts, piano parts, etc.--just as they were originally published. (As is usual, a vocalist would find the vocal part in the score also used by the pianist--simply print one copy of the piano score for each participant, as desired.)
      The result is many hundreds of pages of 8 1/2 X 11 sheet music scanned at 300 dpi and presented both as .PDF files and as .TIF files (some .tif files are zipped)--over 550mb of data. All pages of music are "clean", with very few extraneous markings, and are suitable for duplex (2-sided) printing. All music pages are in the public domain.
