We publish music for chamber ensembles which are both original and arrangements
based on compositions of major composers.
While we specialize in writing for brass with an emphasis on the brass quintet,
you will find works for a variety of instrumentations in ensemble and solo
settings.
Our music is different in the respect that we like to present the chamber ensemble
with large-scale works originally written for the full symphony.
We invite you to review our catalog and select music that will be suitable to
your performance.
A free score is available on the link to the left to introduce you to our music.
