Hey, awesome project! I'm a huge fan of classical music and can definitely see myself using this. I'm going to share it with my dad who's also a big classical aficionado.
Anyway, my question may get lost, as this post really blew up, but here it is. I'm launching a project I've been working on soon-ish, and I'm wondering: what steps did you take to gain traction? My project is somewhat socially-oriented like yours (i.e. there's no paid product), so I'm wondering if you can share any insight into how to get it out there and get high-qualify contributors.
Thank you for this awesome feedback! I didn't take any special steps. I just made a show HN thread and frankly I didn't expect to be that successful since most successful threads I saw were SaaS or other technical projects. I am truly indebted to HN and the community for featuring the thread. I also submitted it on ProductHunt but it failed miserably :D

Thanks, and again, awesome job :)
