I have been looking at building a catalogue of scores on ArrangeMe, where you can sell scores that you have created, whether they are original, public domain works or new engravings of scores.

I have been concentrating on public domain works and looking at either faithful reproductions or amending bits of the harmony or instrumentation.

I have also been exploring creating scores for solo guitar that have both musical notation and tablature, alongside a different version that is pure guitar tablature using rhythmic notation on the tablature since there is no longer a rhythmic guide from the standard notation.

Here are a couple of examples of some small parts.

First standard notation and tablature

and then just tablature with rhythmic notation

I have been enjoying this immensely and learning a lot about creating and engraving scores in Dorico. It has been a lot of fun and ultimately will hopefully build some sort of small passive income.

I am very excited about continuing this and building a catalogue, learning more about score engraving, composition, arranging, and orchestrating for different ensembles. Baby steps first though.

You can see some of the scores that I have been arranging – just a few at the moment – on Sheet Music Direct. Here is my catalogue page.
