That's more like it! The Composer makes 15x more! Now you know why we call our site ComposersWorld! But there is also good news for the Performer. The Composer now makes a sufficient income that he can afford to sell the music for less. Consider the piece above, Twinkle Little Star, now discounted:

So even selling the Composers music at half the price, the composer still makes 8x more than with a traditional publishing house!

Payment schedule

Traditional publishers make you wait for your royalties as long as a year. ComposersWorld.com presently pays royalties quarterly. In the future we will automatically deposit your royalty in your checking account each and every day your work is purchased!

Never out of print

Traditional publishers can't afford to keep everything in print. ComposersWorld.com promises to keep your music always available for sale on the net, never out of print. If ComposersWorld were to fail to keep your music available for more than 90 days, you get your copyrights back.

So how do we do it? We deliver music electronically only, eliminating the need to carry expensive printed inventory.

Contact ComposersWorld.com to find out how you can publish your music.
