Music & Content Credits

The scores in SYNCopated's curated public-domain library, and the samples bundled with the app, come from public-domain compositions and openly-licensed sources. Every underlying composition in the curated library is by a composer whose work is in the public domain. Scores uploaded by teachers are the responsibility of the uploading account.

Bundled sample scores

Works by J. S. Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, John Field, Friedrich Burgmüller, and others ship with the app so there is always something to play. These are public-domain compositions.
