Sheet music
Sheet music is a handwritten or printed form of music notation that uses modern musical symbols. Like its analogs – books, pamphlets, etc. – the medium of sheet music typically is paper (or, in earlier times, parchment), although the access to musical notation in recent years also includes presentation on computer screens. Use of the term ""sheet"" is intended to differentiate written music from an audio presentation, as in a sound recording, broadcast or live performance, which may involve video as well. In everyday use, ""sheet music"" (or simply ""music"") can refer to the print publication of commercial music in conjunction with the release of a new film, show, record album, or other special or popular event which involves music. The first sheet of printed sheet music was made in 1473.Score is a common alternative (and more generic) term for sheet music, and there are several types of scores, as discussed below. (Note: the term score can also refer to theatre music written for a play, musical, opera, ballet, television programme or film; for the last of these, see Film score.)
