Faber Music
Faber Music was founded in 1965 as a sister company to the distinguished book publisher Faber and Faber. Over fifty years later, the company is now one of the leading independent British publishers of classical, contemporary, media, pop and printed music, enjoying a reputation as one of the most influential publishers of serious contemporary classical music in the world.
Faber Music’s performance catalogue, besides repertory works by Vaughan Williams, Arnold, Holst and Britten, features one of the most distinguished lists of internationally recognised composers, including George Benjamin, Thomas Adès, Oliver Knussen, Jonathan Harvey and, most recently, Anders Hillborg. The company’s established British core (Colin and David Matthews, Julian Anderson, Nicholas Maw, Tansy Davies) is complemented by a strong Australian connection (the late Peter Sculthorpe, Carl Vine and Matthew Hindson) and a growing catalogue of young talent (Francisco Coll, Martin Suckling and Tom Coult).
Faber Music also handles Carl Davis’s renowned scores for great films of the silent era (including Napoleon, The General and the Chaplin Mutuals), Lloyd Webber’s Cats, the outstanding choral and concert works of Howard Goodall and the ‘classical’ works of Sir Paul McCartney. The company is increasingly involved in publishing concert works by composers who are also active in the film/TV or pop worlds. Apart from Davis and Goodall such composers include Danny Elfman, Jonny Greenwood, John Harle, Keaton Henson and Anna Meredith.
At the core of Faber Music’s print catalogue are tutors, repertoire and educational publications by world-renowned figures in their respective fields, including Fanny Waterman, Paul Harris and Pam Wedgwood. Following an exclusive European print licence deal with Warner Chappell in 2005, the catalogue now encompasses some of the most famous names in popular 20th-century music, from jazz classics to an array of films and musicals, including La La Land and Hamilton, as well as some of the biggest names in contemporary pop and rock, including Radiohead, Elbow and Muse. As the exclusive agent for the Warner Chappell rental catalogue outside North America, Faber Music handles a vast array of musicals (including Bugsy Malone), operas, operettas and popular concert works (including Gershwin, Bax, Coates and Loewe).
The company continuously builds and promotes its music copyrights internationally, and is proud to provide publishing, administration and distribution services of unrivalled excellence.
