Werner Icking Music Archive
The Werner Icking Music Archive (often abbreviated WIMA) is a web archive of liberally licensed sheet music of public domain music. The scores are electronically typeset by volunteers and distributed in PDF, often accompanied by their typesetting files. WIMA continues the defunct GMD Music Archive and is named after its founder, the late Werner Icking. After a merge completed in 2012, the archive forms part of the International Music Score Library Project (IMSLP).
==History==
Icking's original archive at the GMD (Gesellschaft für Mathematik und Datenverarbeitung) in Germany was the oldest online collaborative distribution site for music scores.〔Center for Computer Assisted Research in the Humanities, (''Computing in musicology'' ), Volume 12, p. 156 〕 Following Icking's death in 2001, the administration of the site was taken over by Danish composer and computer programmer Christian Mondrup. Renamed as the Werner Icking Music Archive in honour of its founder, the site was transferred to the Department of Computer Science (DAIMI) at the University of Aarhus, Denmark.〔Istituto italiano Antonio Vivaldi, Fondazione "Giorgio Cini", (''Studi vivaldiani'' ), Volumes 1-2, Scelte, 2001, p. 151.〕〔Jenkins, Martin, ("Free (Mostly) Scores on the Web" ), ''Notes'', Volume 59, Number 2, December 2002, pp. 403-407〕 By February 2010, the university could no longer host it and Mondrup opted for a commercial web host sponsored by the Danish firm Paldam IT.
WIMA offers primarily classical music, but the archive also contains jazz scores. WIMA is also the home site of MusiXTeX, a suite of open source music typesetting utilities based on the typesetting system TeX.〔Goossens, Michel et al., (''The LaTeX Graphics companion'' ), Addison-Wesley, 2008, p. 589. ISBN 0-321-50892-0〕 The majority of the compositions represented in WIMA are early music. Some of the early music scores published in WIMA are the first modern editions of these compositions.〔University of Connecticut, Music & Dramatic Arts Library, (Scores on the Web )〕 A number of contemporary composers have chosen to publish their works in WIMA. The older music offered in WIMA is out of copyright.
