(Original posting 1/1/2017) Big news! My first commercially available sheet music is now for sale on Swirly Music! Go here: https://www.swirlymusic.org/composer/robert-myers/ to see for yourself. Swirly Music is a new, non-profit distributor of new 21st century sheet music written by self-publishing composers. They have some wonderful new music made available to the public where the composers are free to express themselves outside the constraints of commercial publishers. Their user interface is as good or better than anything I’ve seen elsewhere. Buyers can view and listen to entire works while still protecting the composer from piracy. For the music consumer it’s a great place to find fresh, new music. For composers it’s a bold, new approach to taking your work to market. Check it out!
