Which method of viewing music should I use?
Score Exchange has two methods to display previews of music: seView which uses regular html and javascipt and the Scorch plug-in from Avid which needs to be downloaded and installed onto your computer. Both have advantages and disadvantages:
seView
seView, is the most compatible option. You should be able to view music on all modern web browsers including most mobile devices. Even if your device does not support javascript you should still be able to preview at least page one of the music.
You do not need to install any additional software to use seView.
Scorch
Scorch is a free plug-in from Avid for displaying and printing music. It can also play the music that you're seeing. As modern web browsers are updated, Scorch is no longer compatible with many browsers. Scorch has never been compatible with mobile devices and some web browsers on Mac computers.
If your web browser does not install Scorch automatically, you can click here to download and install scorch manually.
Static preview
The static preview shows a basic image of the first page.
Interactive preview
The interactive preview also shows a preview of the first page, but it's a bit slower to load. The preview is displayed using the Sibelius Cloud Publishing technology from Avid. With most scores, this technology will provide a higher quality preview, as well as being able to switch to full screen mode and also play the displayed music to you.
Printing after purchase
After you have purchased this item the Cloud Publishing technology is utilised to provide the printing mechanism for the music. As such, we recommend checking that the Interactive Preview displays correctly on your device before committing to a purchase.

This is a medley of three lesser-known Australian folk songs or songs for concert band as one continuous movement. The medley includes:
1. A moderate march-type tune 2/4 - “Bryant's Ranges, O” originally written and sung by Mr Charles Robert Thatcher [1831-1878] is song parody on the “Bay of Biscay, O”. And although strictly speaking not a traditional folk song, it does have the feel and the age of one.
2. Moderate Waltz tune 3/4 - "The Girl With The Black Velvet Band" is a traditional folk song collected from singers in Australia, England, Canada, Ireland and the United States describing how a young man is tricked and then sentenced to transportation to Australia, a common punishment in the United Kingdom during the 19th century. [Wikipedia]
3. A bright March Tempo tune 2/4 - “Lachlan Tigers” is a traditional Australian folk song about shearing sheep.
"Well at each gate each shearer stood as the whistle loudly blew With eyebrows fixed and lips compressed the tigers all fell to Hark to the clicking of the shears as through the wool they glide You see our gun’s already turned and on the whipping side A lot of Lachlan Tigers it's plain to see we are Hark to our burly ringer as he loudly calls for tar “Tar here!” calls one and quick the tar boy flies “Sweep those locks away”, another loudly cries…"
An optional piano part is included in the PDF
The same arrangement is also available for Orchestra.
The MP3 was recorded with NotePerformer.
