We've built a similar thing at http://particellissima.net at the Classical Music Hack Day in Vienna.
It's a demo, but you may find some UI ideas interesting, for example synchronization and navigation through a video, flowing score, hiding the instrument parts that are not playing for a while, and assembling a score from small pieces with measure images hosted on multiple subdomains to improve the fetching performance in the browser.
And of course more music would be great!
By the way, all functionality in Peachnote is exposed vie an API, so it's easy to experiment with.
Generally, if anybody here is interested in music n-grams and in doing something cool with the largest symbolic music data set available, please get in touch!

it's just so funny how they use the same verb for it. God bless Pythons for Life of Brian!
"I'M NOT THE MESSIAH!!!"
"Well I say you are and I should know, I've followed a few."For example, Frank Harary once suggested the law that any field that had the word "science" in its name was guaranteed thereby not to be a science. He would cite as examples Military Science, Library Science, Political Science, Homemaking Science, Social Science, and Computer Science.
Discuss the generality of this law, and possible reasons for its predictive power.
-- Gerald Weinberg, "An Introduction to General Systems Thinking."
On the way to the bar I was working up nerve to try the
master’s lesson on an ordinary girl. After all, you don’t
feel so bad disrespecting a bar girl who’s trying to get
you to buy her drinks — but a nice, ordinary, Southern girl?
We went into the bar, and before I sat down, I said,
“Listen, before I buy you a drink, I want to know one
thing: Will you sleep with me tonight?”
“Yes.”
So it worked even with an ordinary girl! But no matter how
effective the lesson was, I never really used it after
that. I didn’t enjoy doing it that way. But it was
interesting to know that things worked much differently
from how I was brought up.Original version, without subtitles http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2xO_FWR1z8

She has also cured Type I in mice, although using other means.
And she also got her share of first-class controversy. Cf. http://www.diabeteshealth.com/read/2005/05/01/4126/why-did-t... and the preceding New York Times article "I BEG TO DIFFER; A Diabetes Researcher Forges Her Own Path to a Cure" http://bit.ly/bzUkWs . The JDRF doens't look good in this case at all.
More information about her approach at http://www.faustmanlab.org/

It's interesting to follow the scientific debate. The 2006 review sponsored by JDRF claims that the methods used by Faustman offer little promise, and can even be harmful. She offers a completely opposite view, claiming in a 2008 paper
Because our findings showing potential benefits of TNF
or TNF agonism for treating AI, it seems paradoxical
that anti-TNF therapies are a major therapeutic class
of drugs currently marketed for AI. TNF antagonists
have provided clinical benefit to about half of AI patients,
those with rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease. Yet an
expanding body of research in animal models on spontaneous
autoimmunity suggests the opposite strategy may be
warranted. Furthermore, in humans, several clinical
observations deserve mention. First, many Crohn's and
rheumatoid arthritis patients never respond to TNF
antagonists. Second, long-term treatment with anti-TNF drugs
can be accompanied by onset of new or aggravated forms of
autoimmunity, sometimes new autoantibodies, suggesting that,
for some AIs, anti-TNF therapy may not be the drug of choice .To me, the JDRF arguments sound more fishy than hers. It's a tricky business of solving puzzles like that, especially as an outsider. But it's fun to see how far one can go following the debate.

What does LiNK do?
We raise awareness about the human rights and humanitarian crisis in North Korea through the use of media and grassroots support. We help those who have fled their country because of this crisis – refugees – by sheltering them, advocating for them to governments all over the world, helping them resettle in countries that will accept them, and ultimately empowering them to live new lives.
also their talk at Google is very, very impressive... http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2531661047425836509
