History

This London firm operated from 1905 until 1958 at which time it was purchased by Boosey & Hawkes. It published mainly songs and choral music by contemporary composers such as Bridge, Delius, Finzi, Quilter, Ireland, Gurney, Warlock, Rowley, and Gibbs. They also founded a magazine, The Sackbut, "at the instigation of its first editor", Cecil Heseltine (Warlock) (to quote RIPM).
