Optimal Use of the A-R Music Anthology (ARMA)

We offer the following recommendations for using ARMAy:

Login

Use your login whenever you use the site. If your network or browser logs you out, it’s easy to log back into ARMA.(If you cannot see more than the first page of pieces, you should log back into ARMA.)

Browsers

The site works in most browsers, include Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and others. Analytics indicate that Chrome is the most popular browser (75%), followed by Safari (11%), Edge (9%), with others used less frequently. While views should be similar, printing can differ. The best results for printing are currently with Chrome. (Some may find images slightly reduced when printed from Firefox or Edge, depending on the settings.)

Secure Site

ARMA is safe, with a current, valid secure certificate. At times, though, browser updates cause warnings to appear. You may wan to trust the site, but if anything raises questions, contact us and, if possible, share screen shots.

Coursepacks

Instructors can make their own digital course packs by using the course functionality that comes with the login. Preset course packs are are available to each instrument for courses in music history and music theory. If you have special requests or want to discuss printing extensive coursepacks, contact us.

Site Licenses and Courses

If your institution has a site license, please contact us about a login and password for your classes. We like to make it easier for you to use the Anthology for your music history and music theory courses.
