MusicXML contribution?

[mrehler]

I don't work with Lilypond myself, but I'd love to contribute a score or two over my summer break. Do you do all the Lilypond by hand? Would you accept a pull request of something done with xml2ly? Any scores you'd like as part of this that you're not inclined to do yourself?

(I work with Dorico primarily)

Hi, thanks for your interest in this project!
Yes, it's an open repository, so contributions are definitely welcomed.

And yes, up until now I have manually written the lilypond partitions of this repository.
Sometimes I found some partial source available in other sites, which I then integrated with the missing parts, or as in the case of the Art of Fugue by J.S. Bach I based my version on an available string one.
The partitions I insert are those I play myself or I'm interesting in.

I didn't know xml2ly and Dorico neither.
Its result can be used in the worst case as a basis for creating the final lilypond source.
Maybe with the help of a reformatting script I can write.
The boring part is always entering all the notes...

Do you have already an idea of what you would like to add?
Please let me known.

I forgot to answer to your question.
I only send the partitions that interest me, especially when I can't find one of graphic quality available on the internet.
You can add what you like. It would be great to have a contributor already :)

My TODO list (but may change):

• J.S. Bach: Partita n.6
• J.S. Bach: Well-Tempered Clavier
• Brahms: Sonata n.3
