When we have received your order, we will send you an email confirmation. Please note that this is done manually so may take a little while to come through.

How can I cancel my order?
You may cancel your order of physical items at any time before the goods are dispatched and within 14 days of receiving your goods. Refunds will only be issued if the music is received in perfect condition, so please make sure the packaging used is appropriate. Music that has been damaged or marked in any way is not eligible for a refund. We recommend obtaining proof of postage when you send it back to us.

What do I do if my order arrives damaged or if it doesn't arrive?
Contact us and we will arrange a replacement for you.

Can I share PDFs?
No. It is illegal to copy or share PDFs of our music, print multiple copies of solo parts to share with others (including students), put score and parts online (including in a cloud-based system) for use by a restricted or unrestricted audience.

Can I photocopy parts?
If you need additional parts for your ensemble, we are happy for you to make additional copies, but please ensure these are used responsibly. Please destroy additional copies after use. Additional sets of parts are available from us on request.

Can I put a video of a performance of a work from your catalogue on the internet?
Many of the works in our catalogue are protected by copyright, and need permission of the copyright holder. We're usually very happy to give permission for you to post recordings, but please check with us first and ensure the composer/arranger are appropriately credited.

What do I do if I want to perform one of the works in your catalogue?
Please let us know so that we can ensure the composer is aware of your performance. The pieces are subject to the relevant performance rights being applied, so please ensure any performances are reported to the PRS or equivalent collection agency in your country.

Where does the money from the sale of the music go to?
Tetractys Publishing was set up to support its composers and to help promote new music for low flutes. 10% of the sales money is donated to rarescale, a registered charity, to help support composer bursaries for educational events and to contribute towards the costs of performance of the works by the composers in our catalogue. Once production costs are deducted, a large proportion of the remainder of the sale price of each piece goes directly to the composer or arranger to help them make a living from their work.
