Emily,
Thanks for the great list of resources. I'm familiar with a few, but this is so much more than I knew about.
I use the Vieuxtemps listings all the time and have used the Virtual Sheet Music a bit, but most of the others are new to me and greatly appreciated.

Thanks Emily,
If you would like to comprise a list, and we have others add to it, I could add it to the resources on the top menu of Fiddlerman.com..... 😁
I think it would be extremely helpful to have many resources listed in one place.
We could list it in genres as well to make it more clear.

That's a fantastic list.
Does anyone have anything to add to that before I post it on our site?

I hit pay dirt, again! ...at least I don't think it's been listed anywhere. (lol)
Found a great archive of free tune pdf's from the "Squirrels' Nest"! They are a Michigan group that jams with all these tunes and proceeds from their cd's goes toward a music scholarship fund!
So, here's another one worthy of the "Free Sheet Music Links" List!
- popular Jam tunes as well as some more obscure ones! Irish, Québécois, Old Time & other Folk music.
...guess there's never enough!

Can you add this FABULOUS Classical Music Library to the list of Free Sheet Music Sources?
- 524 Classical pieces, some rare treasures in Ukraine's Largest Free Library! Mostly Violin, but some Viola, String Quartet & Chamber Ensemble.
Here's the link to Stringy's thread, with a video telling the story of this Library's Founder and describing the War in Ukraine's effect on Violin teachers & Violinists.
https://fiddlerman.com/forum/s.....y/#p124343
Hope more musicians will donate to the Library.
