EasyABC allows the user to create, edit, view, play, convert music written in the ABC music notation language. The program was originally written in Python 2.7 and WxPython by Nils Liberg and runs on Windows, OSX, and Linux. Jan Wybren de Jong has converted to run on Python 3.8 or higher. Frédéric Aupépin has been supporting EasyABC on OSX.
EasyABC depends upon other external programs like abc2midi, abcm2ps, fluidsynth. If you install the Windows or Mac executables most of these programs are automatically included.

Considering this software is free, it is excellent.

I've used EasyABC for some years and it is excellent. I play folk music and this handles my ABC tune collections brilliantly. I have tried other ABC programs but I haven't found anything that matches EasyABC's simplicity of use. The latest version seems to have lost a couple of features: you can no longer play just highlighted sections of the music nor sort on the X: field. I am sure these are just hiccups and will be sorted out in due course.

I use EasyABC every day for practicing the flute and tin whistle. It is the very best ABC notation software I have found and I have tried many. I use it online to display the sheet music and play the background music for my Twitch stream. I really like that the notes turn green as they are played to show your place in the tune. It makes it easy to keep it a large collection of traditional tunes organized and it is easy to make edits or transpose tunes. Thanks!

This is absolutely head and shoulders above any other ABC package. Documentation and support are excellent. Only two complaints, one small and one large, the small being that I would lie to see an easy way to select a tune (to then copy or delete it), and the large being that IT DOES NOT RUN ON THE LATEST Mac OS, which means I am looking for a replacement - sadly.
