As a musician/programmer this seems like a great visualization for exploring related information about music. For searching, well, if you study music you just kinda learn the corpus as you go, so tools like this are the equivalent of browsing programming languages by type. Yeah it's great for true beginners but even a year of music study (not long) is enough to outgrow this kind of system imo.


What's the innovation here compared to something like https://imslp.org/wiki/Main_Page that has a larger score library?

Is it the search algorithm? If so where can we learn more about that? I don't see any kind of about page or "learn more" link.


From a cursory glance, this also lists purchasable scores, and I also found some copyrighted full scores that are not in the public domain.
