Quote
We want your help to hire an internationally renowned orchestra to record and release the rights to: the Beethoven, Brahms, Sibelius, and Tchaikovsky symphonies. We have price quotes from several orchestras and are ready to hire one, pending the funds.

What can I do?
Donate, and vote on what we should buy with the money. Then we will release that music in lossless quality with a creative commons license.

You can also help by voting for us on these sites:
Vote for us on Digg (hopefully Digg V4 is working): [url]http://bit.ly/9YUI35[/url]
Vote for us on Reddit: [url]http://bit.ly/birkg8[/url]
Vote for us on BoingBoing: [url]http://bit.ly/dBLdUN[/url]

Or Using Twitter, facebook etc to spread the word.

What about beyond 10k?
Every $1000 buys a complete set of Mozart violin sonatas, or all of Chopin's mazurkas, ballades, or nocturnes... a little money buys a LOT of music.
