Due to my retirement, I am no longer accepting orders for pieces to be specially arranged for customers’ ensembles.
I will continue to offer support for arrangements that have been ordered recently, so if you need any additional parts or changes making to these, please use this form.
When ordering, it would be helpful if you could state your order number, this should usually be found at the end of the copyright line at the foot of the first page of your music,
and will normally consist of either a four-digit number, or a letter followed by 8 numbers.
E.g. ‘4471’ or ‘F20221118’.
