Choral Public Domain Library , shortly CPDL , is one of the largest collections of public domain - Chorpartituren the Internet. CPDL was founded in 1998 by the American church musician Rafael Ornes, who still leads the project today. The collection has since grown from six to more than 28,000 scores.
In 2005, CPDL was converted to MediaWiki software and since then has also operated as ChoralWiki . Most of the sheet music, most of which is available as PDF, is in the public domain. In individual cases, especially in the case of sheet music from other collections linked to the CPDL, restrictions apply to the performance. There are also midi files for many scores .
