Edit sheet music

What is this?

With Edit you change the details and files of a piece. The page is built like the upload form. Details are saved with one click; changes to PDF versions, audio and additional files take effect immediately.

How to edit a piece

1. Open the piece in the library.
2. Click Edit at the top right — or choose Edit in the card's ··· menu in the library.
3. Adjust what you want to change:
   • Hide sheet music (the choir itself cannot be changed)
   • Title, composer, arranger, lyricist, duration, reference, video URL, description
   • Tags
   • View, replace or remove the license file
   • Your choir's custom fields
4. Click Save.

What else you maintain here

• PDF versions — create a new version, rename, replace the file, set as default, download or delete (see PDF versions of a piece). If the piece has no PDF yet, you upload the first version here.
• Audio files — add, rename, download, delete
• Additional files — such as individual parts, texts or translations

Purchased sheet music

For sheet music from the music shop, the title, composer, description and PDF come from the publisher and stay unchanged. You maintain everything else yourself: hide sheet music, duration, reference, video URL, tags and custom fields. These details only apply to your choir. Other choirs with the same sheet music do not see them.

Permission

To edit you need Create & edit sheet music. By default administrators and moderators have this. Whoever uploaded a piece themselves may also edit it.

Tips

• Keep title and composer consistent so pieces by the same composer can be found together — better always "Bach, J. S." than sometimes "Bach" and sometimes "Johann Sebastian Bach".
• Use the description for notes — such as tempo, breathing points or rehearsal sections.
• When replacing a PDF, give a heads-up so members can check their annotations.
