== 歷史 ==
MuseScore最初是作为MusE音序器代码库的一个分支创建的。当时，MusE具有制谱功能。在2002年，MusE开发人员之一Werner Schweer决定从MusE移除制谱支持，并将其代码转换为一个独立的制谱程序。<ref>{{Cite web|title=At the Sounding Edge: Music Notation Software, the Final Installment|url=http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8972|accessdate=2016-01-05|author=Phillips|date=2006-04-06|first=Dave|work=Linux Journal|archive-date=2020-09-26|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200926064632/https://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8972|dead-url=no}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=WYSIWYG music app makes a score|url=https://sourceforge.net/blog/wysiwyg-music-app-makes-a-score/|accessdate=2016-07-28|work=Blog|publisher=SourceForge|archive-date=2019-08-23|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190823100307/https://sourceforge.net/blog/wysiwyg-music-app-makes-a-score/|dead-url=no}}</ref>

musescore.org网站创建于2008年，一经推出，MuseScore的下载量便迅速飙升。<ref>{{Cite web|title=MuseScore, A Free Open-Souce Music Composition and Notation Program|url=http://mustech.net/2008/10/musescore-a-free-open-souce-music/|accessdate=2016-07-28|author=Pisano|first=Joseph|work=MusTech.net|archive-date=2020-10-25|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201025103029/https://mustech.net/2008/10/musescore-a-free-open-souce-music/|dead-url=no}}</ref>到2008年12月，下载速度已高达每月15,000次。
