Hi all,
thank you for all the interest. Together with the other people already in the project we'll be able to make a good example how fast a score can grow :-)
I'll give more details when I'm back from holidays (very soon unfortunately), only a few cpmments for now (sorry for bot threading that properly).
The material to work with is significantly better than what you have now.
Any amount of contribution is welcome. You just have to take into account the effort of setting everything up and getting acquainted with the project.
Musicological expertise is not required. Nor are programming skills.
One works with files containing one voice for one rehearsal mark. That reduces waiting times for recompilation..
It seems best to enter all voices for a rehearsal mark in one unit of work. That way one can make most use of copy and paste as there is much duplication of voices in the score.
The piece hasn't been performed in the last 100 or so years - so no, there is no recording. But I can (privately) share some other recordings to get into the mood of the music.
(The concert we're preparing this for will be recorded and broadcast in the radio btw).
That's what comes to my mind for now - kids urgently need me in the water :-)
Best
Urs

Count me in for some work.
Are the scans really that bad? I often use scanning
to create musicXML, and this will clearly not work here: but I'm not convinced I
could even get the notes with the patent Holmes eye scan
method?
I'm also presuming from your comments that there's
no music to listen to that could be used to check the work?

Subject: Crowd engraving project
Hi all,
this has been discussed before, but now's the
time to repeat the "call for participation" for our crowd engraving project
with "Das trunkne Lied", a large scale orchestral work by Oskar Fried.
We are looking for people to enter and proofread music in a peer
review workflow and who are interested in discussing and experiencing a
proof-of-concept crowd engraving project.
We expect some experience
with LilyPond and romantic orchestral music. Our workflows are based on Git
and some related concepts so you should either know that or are willing to
learn it on the job. This is definitely possible but we won't be able to do
too much hand-holding.
There are two targets to meet: we should deliver
audio files for the choir and soloists by end of September and instrumental
parts by the end of the year. So far it is only targeted at "usable" and not
"publication" quality.
The music comprises 90 "segments" (respectively
rehearsal marks), and one usually has to deal with only one instrument / one
segment at once).
This is a paid job - but please don't expect this to
be anywhere near appropriate. We're doing this as a proof of concept, for an
amateur orchestra.
You can see the material at http://beautifulscores.net/fried/
- an extremely sketchy site that I put together using an SSH client on my
mobile - we'll dive right into it when I've returned from holidays.
If
you're interested (and this also goes for those who had already expressed
interest last year) please contact me privately, on this list or on the
project mailing list http://lists.ursliska.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/das-trunkne-lied
I'm
looking forward to any contact .
.
Best wishes
Urs
