Dear Folks Sorry for any cross-postings but the following email has just been sent to me to circulate round the list. For HE/FE institutions teaching music this possibility is really good news, so do have a look at the trial access if you can. As co-list owner I should probably forward this message in a totally unbiased fashion but since we do subscribe to this product at the Faculty of Music in Oxford and the take-up has been very good I do urge you to seriously consider this for your institution and complete the feedback form to the Chest.
