09.04.2024 - Issues with the eBay store have been resolved and everything should now be working.
IMPORTANT - EU Ordering
I have instigated a new ordering and payment process for EU customers in order to avoid delays and unexpected delivery charges following Brexit, the gift that keeps on giving.
If you are ordering PRINTED EDITIONS and you live in the EU, follow the link in the catalogue listing and complete your purchase using eBay. You do not need a PayPal account to do this. You can use a debit/credit card payment as usual.
This is a new system, so if you encounter difficulties, please contact me and I will do my best to resolve them.
If you live in the EU and would like to order both PRINTED AND PDF EDITIONS AT THE SAME TIME, you will need to complete two separate transactions. Order and pay for your PDF downloads here, and click the link to the eBay store for printed items.
Obviously, this solution is far from perfect, but eBay has signed up to the EU import system (IOSS), which costs small businesses around £2000 per year to access and without which customs delays and handling fees make ordering from UK firms an unpredictable process.

Septenary Editions is an internet-based publishing house, providing downloadable PDF and printed editions of early music. Our committee of editors are all active performers of this repertoire, and our editions are peer-reviewed and prepared to the highest critical standards. We focus on music that is not readily available as performance material or that has not yet appeared in modern edition.
The majority of our editions consist of performance material supplied as downloadable PDFs. We also supply printed editions; these are generally editions of complete collections and come with full scholarly apparatus including critical commentary and editorial notes.
One of our main aims is to provide a platform for newly edited or rarely performed repertoire. Our contributors have experience working with sources from the fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries and bring their knowledge of the performance of this music to each of our editions.
We are always interested in hearing from potential contributors to our library. Please get in touch if you would like to be a part of this project.
Instrumental music and music for small ensembles is supplied as a set consisting of score and parts.
When you purchase a PDF download, you will be emailed a link to download your music. These links are limited to the number of times they will work, so please remember to save you files first time!
Payment is by Paypal. You do not need to have your own Paypal account, just a debit or credit card to make a payment.
We offer a commissioning service for new editions.
We charge standard industry rates for typesetting and can also quote for editorial work on a case-by-case basis. If you have a project that we would be able to publish on completion, we offer a special discounted rate.
