Fand IncWessex Press is a publisher of high quality sheet music, CDs and books, all focussing on accessible 20th Century and contemporary composers and concentrating mainly on first editions. Please use the tabs at the top of the page to explore the catalogue. Further details, such as information about ordering, can be found on the Contact/Info page.


Fand is delighted to announce the availability of two new additions to the catalogue. Peter Thompson’s newly written The Renaissance Spirit is a warmly contemplative and sensitive work for piano, dedicated to the memory of John Barton Armstrong, a Renaissance man.

In a lighter and more humorous mood, Carey Blyton’s The Christmas Spirit is available in two versions: one for choir (SATB) and string orchestra and a more easily staged version for two equal voices and piano. The Christmas Spirit is a typically witty Blyton work, with comical words set to memorable tunes, interspersed with snatches of well-known existing melodies. These accessible pieces should be ideal seasonal fare for both youth choirs and amateur ensembles alike.

These issues introduce a new presentational style for Fand sheet music, with attractive full-colour covers that match the look of this Web site.

The version of The Christmas Spirit for two equal voices and piano has been recorded on the CD, The Choral Music of Carey Blyton, also available from Fand.
