Google Code-in

Wikipedia and its sister projects have many articles on musical pieces and the theory behind the composition of those songs. However, music uses a different notation to normal prose, and so requires different tools to write it. This represents a barrier to being able to analyse and understand the piece.

As a solution, the Score extension allows for LilyPond notation to be inserted on pages, of which is then rendered with sheet music and playback.

For this task, you will transcribe three (3) short snippets of sheet music either found on Wikipedia or provided to you. You are not expected to have any musical training; I can guide you through basic musical notation/theory.

I will be flexible in my requirements and deadline depending on the complexity of transcriptions.

I will be available on IRC (#wikimedia-dev America/Toronto time) and here for questions. Please see the attached Phabricator task for more details.
