One of my jobs is with Hymnary.org, which is an online database of hymns and 
hymnals. This year we received an NEH grant to make available public domain 
hymnals from various library collections. We have thousands of scanned pages 
like this: http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/OGCS1902/page/83. Now we would like to 
automate a process that would let us digitize the information on these pages, 
essentially turning the page into a MusicXML and MIDI file. This will also 
allow us to create a searchable database of incipits, etc. We have the 
programmers to create the automation, now we need top notch music OCR.

So my question to you is this: can you recommend a great Music OCR program?
