HIRED MUSIC - points to remember :
- If you return music late (i.e. after the concert to which it applies) there will be a fine.
- The adage “return music in the state you would like to receive it” is relevant.

Both these points are VERY IMPORTANT. When we hire music, it causes significant problems if the number of copies ordered are not available because another choir has not returned all that they hired. Comments are often passed about the poor state of copies. Sometimes this is due to age, but if you could see the state of some of the copies returned after being hired by HCS, you would not be so surprised by what you get. The next person is unlikely to be interested in your shopping list or the dates/times of rehearsals or your favourite telephone numbers (probably!) or appreciate your part being highlighted or especially bits that have been crossed out.
