Having a classical tune in my head, and being able to tap out a tune by ear on the piano, I did a Google search for something that would allow me to search for a song by doing just that.
Having then found Musipedia, I tapped out what turned out to be O Fortuna, from Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana. It took just a bit more poking around on Wikipedia, though, because what Musipedia was able to find for me, while consisting of the right notes, was not the right tempo and was definitely not the right orchestration—at least Musipedia found something from the larger Carmina Burana, anyway, which was enough.
Seriously, what did people do before ubiquitous access to the World Wide Web?
