THE BENEFITS OF PUBLISHING YOUR WORK WITH US...

1. Easy To Do

Publishing your music with us is easy and now thanks to our new Self-Publication system, very fast. In the past, we received dozens of new publications every week which took time to sort through and would often take weeks or months; not anymore. Our new Self-Publication system allows you to upload your music directly to our website for a quick review and then be published.

2. Get Paid More

The royalties you get paid are double that of other self-publications sites such as ArrangeMe.

3. Your Music Will Be Advertised

Self-Publication sites like ArrangeMe relies on you yourself promoting your music to the Brass Band world. That is not the case with us. Pennine Music is a household name in the Brass Band industry and we will actively promote your works to thousands of customers across the world. We also visit more Brass Band contests with our trade stand than any other music publisher in the UK where you’ll likely see your music out on display.

4. We Accept Submissions For All Brass Genres

We are now able to accept publications of music for full UK Brass Band, Junior Bands and also for the first time, Brass Ensembles. This means that whatever brass instrumentation you arrange your music for, this will be accepted for publication by Pennine Music.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO PROVIDE?

We want to make this process as easy as possible for both you and your potential new customers. Therefore, all you will need in order to upload your music for publication is the following:-

1. A single PDF file of your arrangement/composition which comprises of a full score (no front page/cover) and all the correct number of parts in ONE file. If possible, we would also recommend including multiple parts as per a traditional brass band line up if your music is for brass band (eg. 4x solo cornet parts, 2x Euphoinium, 2x Eb Bass, 2x Bb Bass etc)

2. The bottom of BOTH the score and parts should have the following text:-
"Copyright © [year] All Rights Reserved. Used With Permission Distributed by Pennine Music Publishing, 10 Woolscroft View, Hemingfield, Barnsley S73 0AX www.penninemusic.com"

Example:-

3. An Audio file of your arrangement/composition. This is not mandatory, however having an audio file (live recording or computer generated) can greatly help improve the number of sales.

Once you have all of the above available, please read our terms and conditions HERE and when you are ready to upload your music for review and publication, please visit https://www.penninemusic.com/upload.html
