  • Sibelius First - FREE Music Notation Software

    This is what I use but I pay for it monthly. Sibelius is by far the best music notation software available. Finale is pretty good as well.

  • Staff Wars and Staff Wars Live for FREE (PC or MAC)

    For mobile devices the apps cost 99 cents, but if you have a PC or MAC you can download either for FREE. Staff Wars you enter the note names with the keyboard, but Staff Wars Live you use your instrument. For Staff Wars Live you must have a microphone built in to your laptop or an external one probably if you have a desktop PC. Here is the link to download those versions for free

  • Noteflight Online Music Notation Program

    Taken from their website:
     
    "Noteflight sees music education as critical to developing young minds, and exposure to musical tools helps grow our future musicians. Noteflight's approachable, natural interface appeals to both young users, and to their teachers. Because Noteflight accounts can be used from any computer with Internet access, students aren't tied to a music lab: they can learn at school, at home, at the library, and at many other places."

    What is Noteflight?

    "Noteflight is the best way to create, store, listen to, print, search and share notated music online. If you are a composer, you can use Noteflight to author and manage your compositions. If you are a performer, you can use Noteflight to create and share sheet music that you like to play. If you're a teacher or a student, you can use Noteflight to communicate and collaborate in learning music."

    How much does Noteflight cost?

    "Noteflight offers a free version to individuals for non commercial use. We also offer a premium product, Crescendo, for $49/year. Users can upgrade, or downgrade their account at anytime without losing scores. Click here for a plan comparison. "

    Will Noteflight stop being free?

    "Nope! Noteflight will continue to offer a basic level of service that is free. It's a fundamental aspect of our business."
