This arm of APS Books covers rock music in which I have a fanatical interest and classical music thanks to the expertise of my friend Keith Horsfall. We publish a series of essential discographies for Rock music collectors and notes for classical music orchestral repertoire from ALBINONI to WEBER each sold with a licence to reproduce the text to accompany a concert or classical music event.
