Modern Editions of The Music of Thomas Ravenscroft
Many thanks are due to the people who have graciously transcribed this
music and agreed to let me distribute it here: Gordon J. Callon [gjc],
Jennifer Kobayashi [jk], Bill Hodghead [bh], Bernd Roth [br],
Christian Mondrup (scancm@biobase.dk) [cm], Acacia d'Navarre
(Chris d'Aquino) [AdN], Tamsin Lewis [tl],
Gisela Knorr [gk], Marien Abspoel [ma], and a few by me [gl].
A few of these were formatted by
GNU LilyPond.
Still others are in Noteworthy Composer format. Christian Mondrup uses M-Tx; in order to format these
files, you also need common.zip.
I also
have a list of sheet music editions
