The Music Division is one of the world's preeminent music collections, documenting the art of music in all its diversity - classical and opera as well as the whole spectrum of popular music including spirituals, ragtime, jazz, musical theater, film, rock and world music. Don't forget: Over 100,000 scores acquired prior to 1971 do not appear in our online catalog. Nearly 500,000 (half-a-million!) pieces of sheet music also do not appear in our online catalog.
