Tin Pan Alley
28th Street between Fifth and Sixth
Avenues was the legendary Tin Pan Alley
where the business of thje American
popular song flourished during the
first decades of the 20th century.
There are quite literally, thousands of music publishers worldwide, ranging from small one-man
outfits operated by songwriters wishing to completely own and administer their own copyrights,
to multi-national conglomerates such as Universal Music, EMI Music etc., who may have several
hundred songwriters who have assigned their songs to them, on their books.
Oddly enough, not that many music publishers operate dedicated websites, presumably
because they are not selling directly to the general public, and as such, see no real
point in bothering to have any sort of online presence.
Those that do have websites frequently offer little in the way of information about
the company, or its staff, and make it quite difficult to work out what exactly they
do publish, and which songwriters are signed to them.
A few sites are "songwriter-friendly", in that they provide information for songwriters
who wish to submit material to the publisher, but most are not, and many indeed seem
to discourage songwriters from contacting them at all.
