MagicScore was created in 2000 by a small group of software developers to serve as an entry-level music notation program.
Along with the visual redesign came differentiation in the features of their product line, resulting in three unique versions of the software: In 2006 the team began working on ways to allow users to embed music notation in other documents and in web pages via Internet Explorer.
Beginning in 2006 and continuing for the next five years the company reached out to the United States music community by sponsoring prizes in the NSBA/MENC Composition Talent Search contest.
In 2007 MagicScore's developers began to reach out to other music experts and consultants from mostly European countries including Switzerland, Germany, Finland, Ukraine, Russia, and Moldova.
This product made it possible for users to dynamically embed music notation files within Microsoft Word documents.
This was marketed as an effort to provide music teachers with a solid set of tools to allow them to create educational worksheets and other documents more easily and quickly than with traditional copy and paste techniques.
