IncipitSearch – Leitfaden zur Zusammenarbeit

Konferenzbeitrag

A centralized access to sources, editions, and further kinds of publications facilitates the research process and provides a comprehensive overview of existing information. To connect musicological collections and repositories, we created a metasearch tool for annotated music: IncipitSearch. It is a tool and a service specifically tailored for research on music incipits, the initial sequences of notes that characterize a work. IncipitSearch is a service to interconnect musical pieces via metadata. It is also a tool that can be reintegrated into existing digital research platforms. By connecting some of the largest digital collections of music metadata it already offers access to around one million incipits. In three comprehensible steps, this guide explains how data owners can add their data to IncipitSearch and how the reimplementation of the search functionality can be carried out.
