FREEHAND SYSTEMS SIGNS DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT WITH RENOWNED GERMAN MUSIC PUBLISHER, SIKORSKI MUSIKVERLAGE.

LOS ALTOS, Calif. – November 7, 2006 – Freehand Systems, Inc., subsidiary of FreeHand Systems International, Inc. (OTCO: FSYI) announced today that it has signed a distribution agreement with Sikorski Musikverlage. Sikorski Musikverlage, a well known German publisher founded in 1935, specializes in contemporary music from around the world. Sikorski’s fundamental emphasis has been the production of composers from the former Soviet Union, including Dmitri Shostakovich, Sergei Prokofiev, Aram Khatchaturian and Dmitri Kabalevsky. Later composers to join the catalog have been Alfred Schnittke, Sofia Gubaidulina, Galina Ustvolskaya, Peter Ruzicka, Jan Müller-Wieland, Lera Auerbach, Benjamin Yusupov and Xiaoyong Chen, representing an important part of European music history.

Sikorski joins the growing list of publishers that have chosen FreeHand Systems as their partner for the digital distribution of sheet music, including Universal Edition, Oxford University Press, Schott Musik International and Josef Weinberger.

“Adding Sikorski to our growing list of publishers moves us forward toward our goal of being the most complete online source for digital sheet music of all genres,” says Kim Lorz, CEO of Freehand Systems.
