Notes and Other Information
NOTE: There are some reports that the sheet music comes out all black except the borders and title when printed. While not sure why, this seems to always happen when opening and printing directly from the browser. The suggestion is to download the sheet music, open in Acrobat Reader and print. You don't need any special music fonts for the PDF files.
NOTE: PDF-L is lead (melody) only music since the harmony arrangement is copyrighted but the melody and words are Public Domain.
