FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOW CAN I PURCHASE YOUR MUSIC?
Ordering music for your ensembles shouldn't be a hassle, but institutions can make it overly complex. Here are some ways to (hopefully) make it simpler to order my music:
WHATS THE DEAL WITH PDFS?
Digital Scores are PDF versions of scores sent directly to your email address. Once you complete your order, you will be sent PDFs of the score and parts with a limited copy license to legally print them for the purchasing institution. Most paper sets include very few master copies of each part. By purchasing a full printed or PDF set of music, you are authorized to photocopy these master parts to fit your ensemble's unique instrumentation. However, you are NOT permitted to photocopy or share these performance materials with any other school or organization. Sets typically ship within 5 business days via UPS ground. Sharing PDFs with other institutions is copyright infringement and prohibited by U.S. copyright laws.
INTERNATIONAL ORDERS
International shipping is expensive. USPS international standard shipping on single orders is likely to cost $70-$80 (USD), minimum, and UPS/FedEx shipping can be much more. This is why I offer ordering PDF files as an option. Electronic delivery is free and fast.

Ordering music for your ensembles shouldn't be a hassle, but institutions can make it overly complex. Here are some ways to (hopefully) make it simpler to order my music:
- Order through this website store, using PayPal. (You do not need a PayPal account in order to use your credit or debit card). This works for PDF as well as Printed sets, and they will ship immediately.
- Order with a Purchase Order. I know many school districts will not process a payment without a P.O. number or Invoice, and I'm happy to send PDF or Printed sets upon receiving a P.O. from you or your school district via email. I can send you a W9 and Invoice within a day or two.
- Visit a distributor/store such as jwpepper.com, Midwest Sheet Music or Stanton's to order any work from my entire catalog. (Be advised, it takes a bit longer to arrive when you order through distributors.)
- CONTACT ME. Cost should not be an obstacle to programming the music you want to program. We will work it out.
