The box to the right will allow you to search ONLY for music scores in OneSearch. It is set up to do a KEYWORD only search.
When searching for a score, enter a few distinctive words. For example to search for Mozart's Symphony No. 40 in G minor, K. 550, try a search like this: Mozart g minor 550. Enter ONLY the most distinctive words to ensure you get the broadest possible search.
If you are looking for a particular edition or publisher, add that to your search, i.e., Dover.
