Birchfield Music
 

New music publishing company Birchfield Music is pleased to announce an exciting link with the new newly crowned double champions, Foden’s.

On show

At the forthcoming Foden’s Solo, Duet & Quartet competition, Birchfield Music will be on show with its extensive range of music that the company has available from composer and arranger Iain Rayner.

Since Birchfield’s formation in August, Iain has already added another five pieces to the catalogue, some of which is Christmas music — so it will be a good time to get some new festive fayre for your Christmas concerts.

Growing range

Birchfield Music has a range of music on its catalogue from light concert works through to major works and test pieces, solos and trios, so there is something suitable for bands of all levels.

Iain told 4BR: "The response to the Foden’s competition has been fantastic with an incredible number of entries and Birchfield Music is thrilled to be associated with the famous Sandbach band and to see the positive work that is going on with the Foden’s Youth Band.

We are really looking forward to the event on the 3rd November and hope the whole day will be a real success."
