Why Buy Sheet Music? In December 2002, John Apple wrote: “It is of interest to note that since Warner Bros (owned by Time-Warner) has acquired the Belwin-HW Gray etc catalog, much of it has been discontinued. In fact, in comparing the catalog of 2000 to 2002, half of the organ music is gone. I talked with an employee who stated that an organ piece must sell 200 copies per year in order to remain in print. I cannot imagine how many organ pieces can meet that number! The employee also said that they are not even keeping archive copies. This is really a tragedy when you consider that during the last 100 years HW Gray published over 1,000 organ pieces in its St Cecilia Series in addition to its Contemporary Series and other works. Most of the J Fischer Series is gone, and that is only the organ music! Much of the choral catalogs of these companies are out of print. What is being published in their names bears little resemblance to the older music.
   These companies will not continue to publish any sheet music as more people download for reduced prices or for free. Supporting a small company like ours can keep a few things available for a while longer.”
   Since then, the music controlled by Warners has been passed around (the control, not the actual music) and currently resides with Alfred Publishing Company.
