Some Fun Facts on Classical Sheet Music
1. The Library of Congress is known as the world's largest library with more than 138 million articles in 650 miles of shelves. The collections include more than 5.5 million pieces of sheet music along with 32 million books and other materials printed, recorded 2.9 million, 12.5 million photographs, 5.3 million maps, and 61 million manuscripts stored there.
2. In 1939 the composer Irving Berlin composed a Christmas song but thought so little of what you just threw on a log and see no need to retrieve it until you use it for a Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire movie, HOLIDAY INN 10 years later.
Crosby was a staunch Catholic and at first refused to sing the song because he felt tended to sell the holy feast of Christmas. Finally agreed, took eighteen minutes to recording, and then this "throwaway" song made a great success.
Crosby's version has sold over 40 million copies. In total, this song has appeared in more than 750 versions, selling 6 million copies of scores and recordings of 90 million in the United States and Canada.
You may not know the songs from the movie HOLIDAY INN or the name of songwriter Irving Berlin. But surely he knows it is in the list of Christmas classics: WHITE CHRISTMAS.
3. No score for diatonic accordion. The music is transmitted from generation to generation to another one on one teaching.
4. A common alternative (and more general) term for sheet music the score, and there are several types of accounts. The term score can also refer to incidental music written for a play, TV or film, also known as a soundtrack.
5. The musical notation in which the various forms and how it is distributed have not changed much in the last half a millennium. Paper, glue and ink have always been the traditional method of production of sheet music, but now modern technology has presented a way of disposing of those shelves full of sheet music and tablature paper and store a complete library of titles in the space of a medium sized book with a product known as The MusicPad Pro Plus. It looks like a Tablet PC, but has a purpose, to store and display digitized sheet music for musicians.
6. singing is a style znamenny Russian music, which is carried out in unison. The name comes from the term "znamena" (the meaning of the marks or signs), which describes writing of the score.
7. "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," the third song, sung most frequently in the U.S., after "Happy Birthday "and the national anthem has sold over 10 million copies in sheet music and / or registration form. He co-authored in 1908 by Jack Norworth and Albert Von Tilzer, none of which had been a baseball game at that point. The song was allegedly written on a train from New York after Norworth saw an advertisement for a party baseball at the Polo Grounds, was inspired, took a paper and wrote the lyrics of classic songs.
