I've always been puzzled that musical OCR is so difficult. It seems like a
VERY constrained problem set compared to text. Small alphabet. Somewhat
regular rules Not even a lot of typefaces.. Sure handwritten would be hard,
and some advanced things might be difficult to detect/codify, but basic
SATB, nothing more complex than 8th notes, ties, and repeats seems like it
should be very straight forward.
