Preface

This website allows to share and publish musical transcriptions. I believe it's a good thing to make musical knowledge accessible as long as no one's rights, economic basis, or justified sense of ownership is affected. But it is not easy to find general rules for which material may appropriately be published and which should not.

Music which is actively taught by someone - especially traditional musicians - should not be made public without explicit consent of the teacher. Sharing your knowledge one-to-one is very different from publishing material.

So besides the legal boundaries as stated in the Terms and Conditions below, please use common sense and be careful and sensitive when sharing or publishing materials. When in doubt, don't do it.
