MuseScore is a graphical WYSIWYG music score typesetter. Notes are entered on an "virtual note sheet". As notes are entered, the score is immediately reformatted. It uses the LilyPond project's TrueType fonts.

Recent releases


Changes: This release implements a new compressed file format (*.mscz), adds a lot of other new features, fixes some bugs, and tries to speed up/optimize the layout. The script plugin interface has bindings to the whole Qt library. New score elements are glissando and tremolo symbols between notes. Tuplet types are extended and can now contain notes and rests of different length.


Changes: This revision introduces a new harmony element used for chord names, which allows for proper import and export to MusicXml. A new import filter reads some "Band In A Box" files with proper display of chord names. Scores can be transposed and a new function allows the creation of excerpts of selectable instruments. The new online documentation, many other small enhancements, and a lot of bugfixes increase usability.


Changes: Creation of new chords is now guided by a "New Score Wizard". Newly implemented score elements are acciaccatura and appoggiatura grace notes. There is also a new line object that combines a text with a line. Texts can now be circled. Import and Export of compressed MusicXML files (*.mxl) is now supported.


Changes: This release better visualizes drag and drop operations, and allows for small notes and rests and whole staves. Other enhancements are extended repeats and more complete MusicXml import/export. New elements are horizontal and vertical frames to structure the score. The Windows version now supports the integrated sequencer and software synthesizer.


Changes: For the first time, there is a Windows version, but currently without a sequencer and synthesizer. This version has many new functions like the ability to insert and delete measures, a better layout, new score elements like changeable note heads, rehearsal marks, tremolo, measure repeats, and more. The sequencer now can play repeats. There are also bugfixes and new bugs.

Hi I compiled this on puppy Linux and when I run it, It doesn't display the menu graphics, the boxes still work just no icons on them?
I also tried other peoples versions Debian and Slackware, both of those versions the same problem. I was wondering if you could package the menus graphics and tell me where to place them. That would be the easiest way of overcoming this issue. thanks for your time.
