Under Construction
We’re currently updating the Store and Resources sections of this website, so you may see changes from day to day. One of the main changes is our pricing, making it more clear how to order music from single to multiple copies. We hope it will make your search easier!
We’re adding some new products, including even more singable Psalm settings and choral arrangements of BCP compositions. There are more lead sheets under the Resources tab.
Here’s where we’re different from other online music companies: we allow you to preview the ENTIRE piece before purchase rather than just showing you a snippet, to give you more of the experience of being in a brick and mortar store. When we’re done, you will be able to see the music and hear how it sounds. And we also try to accommodate our customer’s requests, whether it’s for something in a different key, the addition or deletion of parts, or change in instrumentation. This year we had requests to write violin and mandolin parts, add harmony to our Alleluia communion setting, and even change a choral work into an instrumental one. BCP Can Do!
