About the Author

SUSAN HOMEWOOD was a music copyist for many years, producing instrumental parts and scores for a number of influential composers before becoming involved with the development of computerised origination systems. More recently, Susan has worked with the Music Publishers' Association to create Britain's first postgraduate course in Music Publishing. COLIN MATTHEWS, the celebrated composer, spent much of his early career as a copyist and editor, working for most of the major publishing houses. He collaborated with Deryck Cooke on his realization of Mahler's Tenth Symphony, and was assistant to Benjamin Britten in his later years. Colin has edited several previously unpublished works by Britten and Holst.
