Much of the content posted initially to this wiki was ported over from the former Home Practice Online website. HPO was created in 1998 as a resource for young instrumentalists and their directors. HPO was used by many band directors, and was featured in numerous music education articles, texts, and at conferences and university music education technology classes, all over the United States.

Musipedia is a searchable, editable, and expandable collection of tunes, melodies, and musical themes. Entries can contain a bit of sheet music, a MIDI file, textual information about the work and the composer, and last but not least the Parsons Code, a rough description of the melodic contour. Musipedia uses the "Melodyhound" melody search engine. You can find and identify a tune even if the melody is all you know. You can play it on a piano keyboard, whistle it to the computer, simply tap the rhythm on the computer keyboard or use the Parsons code.
