Free music every Friday from Big Shiny Brass

You can't beat something for nothing every Friday...

Big Shiny
  Free music every Friday — what's not to like about that...

Thursday, 21 February 2019

        

Big Shiny Brass has found a novel way to keep its customers happy, with their new 'Free Music Fridays' club.

Members receive an email every Friday morning with a link to a free PDF from the Big Shiny Brass catalogue. It might be a piece for junior band, a flexible piece for small ensemble, a full brass band arrangement or a solo item with backing track accompaniment.

Free music

Founder and lead arranger Matt Kingston told 4BR: "Everyone loves free music, and over the years we've had tens of thousands of downloads of our most popular free PDFs.

The new 'Free Music Fridays' club makes it even easier for our loyal customers to explore our music, and to try out all sorts of new and exciting music with their bands."
