Last year, Ada Witczyk invited composers to submit original compositions for flute, violin, gamba and harpsichord. The three winners (from Sweden, Spain and the UK) have now had their very different compositions published. Click HERE to find out more.
We are delighted to work with the internet-based Choir of the Earth.
If you are a member of the choir, please follow THIS LINK to your page.
The last year or so has been very challenging for us, with multiple orders returned because of the new import duties caused by Brexit. We are delighted to announce that we are partnering with specialist music printers in Germany to fulfil our overseas orders, which will mean that customers will no longer face delays at customs and additional costs. Thank you, Aurioprint for agreeing to support us!
