Institutions cards protect your side, and come back strong when you're losing.
The site, in 2006
A wiki library of public-domain sheet music, mostly scans of old printed editions, plus scores composers choose to share; also called the Petrucci Music Library.
Edward W. Guo opened it on 16 February 2006. It shut from October 2007 to June 2008 after a legal demand from Universal Edition, finished uploading Bach's complete works in 2008, and held over 736,000 scores by 2023.
In 2006: Opened on 16 February, run by Edward W. Guo under the user name Feldmahler.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
