I would like to know whether there exist any standard or de facto
standard format for musical information and notes. You can of course
send notes as pictures (i.e. by fax) and music as digitized sound,
but then you can't edit the notes, nor drive any instruments. The
amount of information required for that kind of info is also (if
appropriately coded) considerably smaller than that of digitized
sound and/or picture.

Locally you can connect computers (even very small) and instruments
through the MIDI. Does the Midi standard include any kind of file
interchange format which also could be distributed over networks ?

If there exist one or more standard formats, which products do currently
conform to it ?

Regards
