Please note -
* we have updated our list of London Orchestrations charts and withdrawn older arrangements.
* London Orchestrations are PRINTED TO ORDER, hence the 3-4 day preparation time.
* we do not deliver charts electronically as pdfs via email or as downloads, as this is not covered in publisher copyrights.
* we do not sell backing tracks for any of the London Orchestrations music.

We also regret that due to copyright restrictions we are unable to supply London Orchestrations to customers in Australia, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico and the United States at this time.
