The Mutopia Project offers a large collection of sheet music editions that we freely distribute under Creative Commons licenses. Most of our editions are based on older editions in the public domain, and include works by Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Handel, Mozart, and many others. We also host a growing number of modern editions, arrangements, and new music. The respective editors, arrangers, and composers of these works have chosen to make them freely available.

We also host a growing number of modern editions, arrangements, and new music. The respective editors, arrangers, and composers of these works have chosen to make them freely available.
