Music Sheets
Sheet music is a hand-written or printed form of musical notation.
The music that musicians have in front of them when they play is printed music. The sheet or sheets of paper that contain(s) the written notation of what the musician are to play is called printed music. Sheet music is a subset of printed music. Sheet music usually refers to a "single sheet" of music; that is, one song or piece printed separately. Printed music includes sheet music but also includes music published in collections. People often confuse sheet music with printed music.
Music can be published as a separate copy ("single sheet music")for one piece or song, or it can be a collection of pieces in a larger book. If, for example, there is a piece of music for violin and piano, then the pianist will play from the piano part, which will have the piano music written, as usual, on two staves. Above those two staves, printed slightly smaller, will be another stave with the violin part. The violinist will play from a separate part which will just have the violin music. This means that the pianist can always see what the violin should be playing, but not the violinist will not be able to see what the pianist is playing. The violinist may need to look at the piano part sometimes to see how the violin and piano part fit together. It would be difficult for the violinist to play from music with both parts because he would need to turn the pages too often. (Unless the violinist had a few measures of rest right before the page turn, the violinist would miss playing some of his/her part while turning the page.)

Here at Paper Trail we have for sale collectible music compilations and/or sheets which are collected more because of the great graphics with which these were decorated than the actual music. To some people though, who wish to be able to play a certain song, music sheets are invaluable for providing the words and music of songs and tunes which are largely forgotten now.
In either case these music sheets are for you .
Due to a limitation of the number of pictures allowed by our server we are not showing the actual music scores on newer listings.
We will always combine shipping so you can save significantly on shipping by purchasing more than one sheet.
