Wonderful discovery (for classical musicians)! Yesterday I discovered that music publisher Theodore Presser has put sheet music onto CD's, thus allowing someone to purchase huge quantities of sheet music and then print or view what they like, all for a pretty reasonable price. For instance, the complete solo piano music of Grieg and Mendelsohn, 1100 pages worth if I remember correctly, is on one CD for less than 20 bucks. Like the rest of the music publishing industry, TP does not sell things directly on the net, so, should you be interested, you'll have to find them via search engines. The only down side I can see is that you might spend more printing things out yourself than it would cost you to buy them pre-printed, depending on the circumstances.
