About Birdsong

Birdsong Music Publishing is a full, bespoke publishing and (if needed) management service that is tailored to the composer’s needs.

We help composers to find and negotiate commissioning opportunities, to get engaged in interesting projects and to secure sync deals. In addition, our team can offer individual composer management offering the opportunity to benefit from the additional support a full service management company can offer.

We make sheet music available and hire out scores and, importantly, we provide efficient and thorough royalty collection and distribution through our partnership with Faber Music.

Our aim is to protect copyright, nurture development and encourage creativity. We ensure that the composer’s work is not only being properly and professionally managed but also that income is both generated and collected. We work with composers through every aspect of their careers from the creative to the commercial.

Our dedicated team of publishing, management and music experts can provide individual support to the composer and genre-specific expertise that can alleviate the administrative burden placed on composers allowing them to focus on their music and by working within the wider HarrisonParrott Group to use our networks to expand opportunities and reach.
