Music

I love music, who doesn't ?
I prefer music that says something worth keeping in heart, and this is possible for any combination of armony, melody, lyrics and rhythm.

Online resources

• Jazz88 on WBGO network
  This is a radio station from Newark (NJ). Newark Public Radio is a cultural affiliate of National Public Radio. It's a listener-supported radio that I used to listen when in USA. 24 hours a day Jazz. No advertising! I missed this one when I came back to Italy, but finally they have an online stream so I started tuning on it again (thanks!).
• Learn Jazz Piano
  A citadel of jazz pianists, by Scott Ranney. This is a BBS-like service, with many interesting resources for learning. It has some targetted advertising, but it's targetted, so not very disturbing.
• Lead sheets
  A big collection of jazz, classical and brasilian music sheets in PDF format. The link above is a directory listing, I find it far more usable then tipical web sites. If the link brokes or you prefer to browse a colorful page follow this link.
• Mutopia Project
  Mutopia is similar in spirit to Project Gutenberg, but consists of free sheet music. All music is available as Postscript (.ps) and PDF (.pdf) files, for both A4 and Letter paper sizes, as well as GNU Lilypond's own file format (.ly). Audio previews of the music are available as MIDI (.mid) files; these are computer generated but give a rough idea of what the music sounds like.
