What is a music font?

A music font is a typeface designed for notation symbols, score text or both. Modern SMuFL music fonts organize thousands of standard music symbols so compatible notation applications can map clefs, noteheads, articulations, dynamics and other glyphs consistently. Text companion fonts help titles, directions, chord symbols and annotations share the same visual character.

Engraved or handwritten?

Choose an engraved design for a traditional, classical or publishing-oriented page. Choose a handwritten or jazz design when you want the score to feel closer to a working chart, copyist manuscript or commercial-music part. Many NorFonts families include both music and matching text fonts.
