A Personal Note from Sylvia Woods

Many of you have told me how much you LOVE buying music as PDF downloads. You love the immediate gratification, and the fact that there are no shipping charges. PDFs have become so popular that over 60% of my orders so far this year have been for downloads!

And so, my main project for January has been to add more PDFs to the harpcenter.com website for YOU, my wonderful customers! So far, with excellent assistance from Mary Radspinner, I've been able to get about 30 new PDFs ready for you in the New Harp Books and PDFs category. And I have at least 50 more "in the works" that I hope to have posted in the next month.

For now, there are new PDFs by:
Becky Baxter
Susanna Campbell
Kathryn Cater
Therese Honey
Jan Jennings
Beth Kolle
Linda Larkin
William Mahan
Bonnie Mohr
Joyce Rice
Sue Richards
Laurie Riley
Barbara Semmann
Sunita Staneslow
Evelyn Tiffany-Castiglioni
Barbara Wright

Keep checking the New Harp Books and PDFs category periodically to see what new PDFs have been added as I make it through my huge list! Look for more music by Rhett Barnwell, Brook Boddie, Linda Larkin, Joyce Rice, Darhon Rees-Rohrbacher, Evelyn Tiffany-Castiglioni, Carol Wood, and MORE!

Enjoy the music,
Sylvia

P.S. Thanks so much, Mary!

As each screen print is handmade and unique, there may be subtle variations and imperfections.
