Marathon woman...

Tabby Kerwin still has enough energy left after completing the London Marathon to launch the new Mode for...Publishing website.

  Tabby completed the London Marathon on the weekend.

After successfully completing the London Marathon and raising £3,200 in memory of her husband Simon last weekend, Tabby Kerwin has announced the launch of the new Mode for...Publishing website.

www.modeforpublishing.com is a celebration of the music of Simon as well as being the creative home of the Kerwin name.

Delighted

Tabby told 4BR: "I'm delighted to create the new home of Simon's musical legacy. I'll be continually developing the website and adding music as we have hundreds of pieces of music to publish that Simon composed and arranged."

Tabby told 4BR that all the music is available as PDF download, available instantly on payment.

She added: "This what he wanted — for the music to be available quickly and easily at an affordable price point so bands could regularly play new music to develop the musicians and make rehearsals interesting."

Ranging from beginner brass methods to ensembles and full band pieces, the catalogue of music will increase monthly and we will be launching a 'VIB' list (very important bands) where bands can sign-up and receive one new piece a month for just £100 per year.

Exciting

Tabby concluded: "It's an exciting time for Mode for...Publishing and launching now seems the perfect way to celebrate Simon and what would have been our third wedding anniversary."
