About Bill Fulton’s charts and arrangements

Here at the Bill Fulton Music Store you can purchase score and parts covering the following categories: big band, tentet, octet, combo, and orchestral/chamber music. Other categories may be offered at a later date. This store is a work in progress and a labor of LOVE. So please check back often as I am endeavoring to upload pdfs and mp3s of ALMOST every composition and/or arrangement I have ever done over the last 30 years here. Of course I will only upload those scores which reflect my most discerning opinion of taste, value, playability, and last but not least, FUN! Here is what you get when you purchase a chart, arrangement, or sheet music from the Bill Fulton Music Store:

  1. You will IMMEDIATELY receive in your email INBOX, an email from Payloadz.com (which I use to handle all of my digital download orders) which will contain a link or links to your files.
  2. Click on the link(s) as indicated to download a .zip file containing pdfs of the score and parts as well as an mp3 (if available) of the latest recording of the chart or arrangement. Score and parts will be always be sized for 8.5″ x 11″ paper. If you want your parts on 9.5″ x 12.5″ paper, print out on 8.5″ x 11″ than photocopy with a 109-111% enlargement to 9.5″ x 12.5″ paper.
  3. Use Permacel 1/2″ white paper tape to tape your parts together. And always apply TAPE IN FRONT ON ODD TO EVEN PAGES, TAPE ON THE BACK ON EVEN TO ODD PAGES. You’ll thank me for this bit of advice later when your parts are NOT sticking together in your band book!
  4. HARD COPY ORDERS ARE DISCONTINUED AT THIS TIME! If you want printed, taped parts instead of downloadable pdfs, you will need to contact me for a special order. Prices are subject to negotiation on special orders. Special orders may be delayed as much as 2 weeks.

Pricing

You will find that my charts, arrangements and score are priced VERY competively. I scan the internet for other companies selling the same products I am selling and I ALWAYS try to price my products considerably less. I would much rather sell to the masses at an affordable price than sell to a few at unreasonable prices. That being said, you will see that pdf versions of my charts are priced a lot less than hard copies as the labor and expense of production, shipping, and handling are eliminated.

Security

What… now you want a SAFE transaction?! Well let me just say that every purchase you make from The Bill Fulton Music Store is enabled by my partnership with PayPal.com and Payloadz.com. These two companies are arguably the largest most trusted merchant service organizations this side of Mars! Payloadz handles my digital files but hands off the transaction to PayPal. So PayPal will ALWAYS be involved with the transaction. You can also buy my pdfs (only) directly from Payloadz.com store so you know you are purchasing from a trusted leader in the ecommerce business. Feel better now? Jeez!
