NoteHeads offers publishers and artists technology which will enable them to sell their music in sheet music format over the Internet from their own sites.

NoteHeads offers solutions that enable:

  • Everyone to produce sheet music of professional graphical quality with an unprecedented degree of ease and creativity.
  • Performing musicians to buy sheet music of exceptional quality over the Internet at low prices.
  • Publishers to make their sheet music available to performing musicians, easily and securely.

What we are
NoteHeads are the creators and developers of NoteHeads Igor Engraver, the world's most highly evolved notation software - the first and only example of what we refer to as third generation notation software.

Igor Engraver combines state-of-the-art desktop publishing, unique automatic recognition of all of music notation rules, the best user interface on the market, and impressively natural playback, thanks to an in-house-developed MIDI based paradigm called "What You See Is What You Hear".

Why we are
There are two main reasons for NoteHeads existence:

1. With NoteHeads Igor Engraver, you work far less for far better and quicker results than with other products. In fact, when it comes to making life easier for musicians, NoteHeads Igor Engraver is lightyears ahead of its competitors. We make no bones about it: we're proud of what we are offering and we want you to enjoy the benefits.

2. Sheet music is getting increasingly hard to find as more and more sheet music shops go out of business. The solution is to buy digital sheet music directly over the Internet. Using NoteHeads Reader, you can securely download a wide selection of playable and printable sheet music of outstanding quality over the Internet.
