FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 1, 2006, Verona, New Jersey - Subito Music Corporation has acquired the catalog of Seesaw Music from the family of the late Raoul Ronson. Subito will retain the Seesaw name and imprint on the entire catalog, which consists of over 3600 works by more than 300 composers.
Seesaw Music Corporation was founded in New York City by Mr. Ronson in 1964 to create a place for the serious music being created at the time. Subito President Stephen Culbertson states: `Seesaw Music was one of the first `print-on-demand` publishers, before that term became current. There are many works with a long performance history, as well as gems that we hope to re-introduce to the concert music community. We are pleased to be able to keep the entire catalog intact and available. We hope to add new works to the catalog as well as modernize the distribution system by using current technology and adding online ordering capabilities.`
Acquisition of the Seesaw catalog marks a period of unprecedented growth and expansion for Subito Music Corporation, which recently assumed distribution for the Subito print catalog, the CD Sheet Music 2.0 product line, and several other series including Large Print Music and The Digital Editions.
From its inception in 1980, Subito Music Corporation has been a leader in the concert music publishing industry. Informed by over 125 years of combined experience, SMC is a full-service music publisher, featuring a roster of world-class composers among its list of exclusive artists, and offering typesetting and printing, promotion, rental, sales, distribution and copyright administration services for composers and publishers.
