buying sheet music...

[meisel]

Hey there!

Im about to buy some sheet music from the internet, and i would appreciate if some of you could suggest some sites that sell sheet music for a cheap coin. What im looking for is books with sheets (the etudes of chopin for instance), not pieces that i simply download.

Since i dont exactly live in a cheap country (Norway), buying from the internet is problably not a bad idea. And it would be an advantage if the location where the site send it from, is not too far from Norway. Im sure they have cheap books in China, but the shipping would probably not make it worth it.

Soooo, any suggestions to where i might buy?

I don't think it will be any cheaper for you to buy from a European site than from say an American site, as i have found shipping costs to be mostly very reasonable.

I live in England and some music i bought from Elibron in the USA had cheaper delivery costs than Di-Arezzo in France.

Just enter classical sheet music in your internet browser and you will get many choices.

www.amazon.com or .co.uk or .fr should have loads of books
or
https://www.cdsheetmusic.com is a good option for cheap and portable sheet music since they compile a huge amount of sheets on CD in pdf format.
You'd have to print it, though
or
you can use google, they rule the world you know?

Thanks for advice. Yeah i know ( www.justfuckinggoogleit.com ), i used google, but there is so much to choose from, i thought that asking here might shrink it in a bit.

I prefer to have the sheets in a book instead of loose papers. Ive just printed it out so far, and the result is a big pile of papers that makes it hard to find what im looking for.

I usually just take the papers to the stationery store and bind them together in books

Some people prefer high-quality urtext editions with good fingering.
