HOW TO ORDER UNPUBLISHED MUSIC


E-mail me at:

  JohnSDixon@aol.com

Let me know what you are interested in.  I’ll quote a price for the total package including postage.

Generally a short piece is about $3 - $5 and the larger works, such as my cantatas and symphonic pieces, are $20 - $25.  I’ll make sure you get plenty of music for your money.  Then send a check, and I’ll send the music.

If you are buying a few pieces and would like sample pages from some other works, this will not be a problem.

Or else your trip to Heaven may become a trip to Hell."
