Welcome to Steve's Musical Terms Database

There are over 2,500 musical terms listed in my musical terms database. It is searchable either by term or by meaning. The terms as seen on a score are searchable with or without accents (acute, grave, cicumflex, umlaut, etc), with the exception that accents over the final letters in Italian words are not matched. They are rarely seen on musical scores. I hope they all work. The meanings are UK English, and will only generate matches using English. Hopefully I will be able to internationalise this database in time.

If you find a term not listed, or any errors in either the terms or their meaning then please let me know. My personal e-mail address is available by doing a 'whois' on my domain name - I'm not about to publish it here.
