FAQs

Good question. We have tried to provide as much information as possible next to the product (length, approximate standard, instrumentation etc.). There is also an extract of the score for you to check and a sample audio track (of course nothing will imitate a live performance!) All of these pieces have been tried and tested with a wide variety of players and we pride ourselves at knowing this music inside out. Please do get in touch if you would like to know more about the music and whether or not it is appropriate for you.

Next to each product we have listed an approximate grade level. This is based on UK Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music/ Trinity College of Music.

Of course!

We love when our music is out there but please ask permission before sharing a performance online. If permission is given then we may use it on our website or for publicity. Please make sure that you credit both Groovy Rascal and the composer in all performances.

No, sorry this is illegal. As Groovy Rascal holds the copyright for all its music, please contact us and we can help you with additional or adapted parts for the appropriate fee.

If you have a large group with several players on each part then it is ok to photocopy additional parts for rehearsal and a one off concert. You should collect all copied parts in afterwards and destroy them. The parts may not be shared with anyone else.

No. It is illegal to copy/share PDFs of our music, print multiple copies of a solo part for students to use, print and/or share pages with other people, put the score and/or parts of a piece online/ on a cloud system for use by either a restricted or unrestricted audience or to share your PDFs with another group.

After purchasing you will be sent a unique download code which will be valid for 2 days. Please check that your code hasn’t gone to your spam folder. You will have 2 attempts at printing so do check that your printer has paper in it! You may not share this code with anyone else.

This works exactly the same as the pdf download. You will have a limited time to download this to your device.

You may return printed music for exchange or refund of the music cost within 14 days of delivery. Refunds will only be issued if the music is received back in mint condition; music that has been marked or damaged in any way is not eligible for refund, so please use sturdy packaging, and obtain a free proof of posting receipt when you send it. We do not offer returns/refunds on digital downloads.

We ship globally so please just drop us a note and we will organise this for you.

All backing tracks are supplied in Mp3 format.

When you purchase a solo piece you are supplied with a free audio of the piano accompaniment as well as the accompaniment with instrument guide. Rhythm section download tracks are available to purchase for all ensemble pieces. They are available from the drop down menu next to the piece.

Absolutely. Not every band has the luxury of a rhythm section so the tracks can really help to boost your performance. Please contact us directly if you would like an audio download of a bespoke rhythm section (eg. perhaps you have a great drummer but no bass player. groovy-rascal can provide a track without drums). Let us know your needs and we can quote for your needs.

We’d be happy to make a bespoke track for you. Please contact us for details.

No problem, drop us a line with your request and we will be happy to provide a backing track to accommodate your performance. There will be a small charge for this.
