We have a very simple philosophy:

"If it is good enough for a professional musician then

it MUST be good enough for you!"

Conversely if it is NOT good enough for a professional musician,

then it is certainly NOT good for you.

All of our publications are suitable for beginners or professionals alike. If you are just starting out on the wonderful journey through music, then you need to know how "pro's" do it. If you are more advanced, you want to learn how the professionals do it so you can play better. All the best professionals constantly check whether they have the basics right - especially if they teach others.

We are vehemently opposed to anything "dumbed-down" for beginners.

None of our publications treat you like an idiot - we do our level best to speak plainly, clearly and honestly, free of jargon and verbal "padding". If we think something is wrong we say so - and then prove the method wrong!

Having suffered ourselves from the poor teaching methods generally available, in 1995 we started writing our books. Our sole aim is to help all musicians to get the most out of their music making. From the initial book, the Bassoonist's Reed Doctor, we have steadily added new publications until today, we have over 300 ORIGINAL books, charts and sheet music products in our catalogue.

Our policy is to give you a 100% honest and reliable service. If you have any difficulties or are dissatisfied with any of our products or service, please Email or telephone.  We guarantee you a personal service by one of the partners.
