Initially when opening these composer webpages in 1997, their purpose was to list all those composers referred to on the recorder music, recorder music CDs and recorder artist pages. In January 2012, they have been extended to include brass and bagpipe works.
The tables and anecdotes are more or less complete and much additional information is given of associated musical scores, books, CDs and relevant websites. In general these composers are composers of recorder music or composers whose works have been arranged for recorder, brass and bagpipe music.
Some statistics, as of 25.11.18 there are 5283 composers listed as well as 1016 books, 838 CDs, 4979 items of sheet music and 503 links to websites associated with them.
