Hello

Does anybody know where I can find music notes for rags, boogies, blues and / or modern rock and pop music for free? I'm searching for a site like e.g. freesheetmusic.org

Thank you very much

Not sure if this is much help, or indeed how authoritative it is, but there seems to be a huge amount of information here regarding notable ragtime, pieces and has plenty of MIDI excerpts of ragtime pieces.

Try here:

https://ucblibraries.colorado.edu/cgi-bin/sheetmusic.pl?Rag12th_3&Rag&main

this takes to Univ. of Colorado's scan of  Euday Bowman's 12th Street Rag.

You can jump to the Library's Home from it;

And......If you Google a Rag title you should get other Libraries hits similar to it.

Poems of Ecstasy – Scriabin’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow. All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
