Great

Service
"J.W. Pepper has great
customer service. I can
immediately speak to a
person. They find what I'm
looking for, and if it's in
stock, I have it in a matter

Traditional octavos can be difficult for some choir members to read, so Pepper created large-print editions to
make things easier for your singers. Printed on 9" x 12" paper, this music is significantly larger but retains
the same pagination, measure numbers and page turns so no one gets lost. These editions are only available
through J.W. Pepper and are a must-have for church and community choirs!
