Composer Information Page
PDF Band Music was founded as a place where band composers have the opportunity to publish and sell compositions to a world-wide audience. Our panel of music educators is aggressively seeking new and exciting music that will have broad appeal to school instrumental teachers.
General Composer Information:
- There are no fees attached to submitting music for publication on PDF Band Music.com
- PDF Band Music will insure your compositions are professionally transcribed
- The composer will set the price of each composition. (We do recommend that prices be kept low)
- PDF Band Music will create a computer generated preview audio file of each composition at no cost to the composer
What's the catch and what do you need to know?
- Not every composition will be accepted for publication on the PDF Band Music website. Each composition will be evaluated by the adjudication team at PDF Band Music. We will only offer our customers musical works of the highest standards
- Copyright and other Licensing Fees - The responsibility for the copyright of new music or music arrangements is the responsibility of the composer/arranger. Click here for copyright tips.
- We make money by collecting a percentage of sales. This percentage varies depending on how much preparation we must do to put your composition online. We believe that if a composition is selected to be sold on the PDF Band Music website that we will all profit.
- What's the catch? There is no catch. We are simply musicians offering other musicians an excellent product at great prices. It is that simple.
