As the royalty statements for 2008 start rolling in (although publishers some don't run on calendar years), I have now sold probably just under 7000 copies of sheet music. (I'm missing some of my 2006 numbers in my spreadsheet, so I don't know the exact number.) My five best sellers, in order: "I Need Thee Every Hour", "Ave Maria (Two Settings)", "Ten Christmas Hymn Introductions", "Born is the King of Israel", and "Good Vibrations". "Good Vibrations" is the odd duck, having sold three times as many copies the year after the piece was released than the year it was released -- probably largely due to it being performed at the International Handbell Symposium.
i sincerely do not know what you are doing here. are you lost? were you
looking for your delicate calico cat, and did you follow her up two flights of stairs
to this room? she is not here. she was here, yes. we gave her a warm bowl of milk, we talked with her about campaign finance reform for a time, and then she bid us good day. i believe she was
going to the post office two blocks down, but i don't quite recall.
for surely you did
not find your way from prinsiana, the least traveled site on
the internet. if you did, though, perhaps you are looking for humor. perhaps you are looking for profundity. perhaps you are looking for answers.
i'm sorry, but you shall go naught-for-three.
