A particularly unique resource for the classical vocalist, this company features a wide range of works that are otherwise inaccessible to your average buyer. Imports, contemporary composers, out of print, urtext editions, Glendower is your guy. Tremendous diversity and range in selection, and his knowledge ins unsurpassed, as he comes with a background from one of the most celebrated music retailers of all time, sadly now defunct. He also carries a wide range of "the usual" anthologies and resources. This is not some push button, mass market retailer. Shopping with CVR is not like a drive through McDonalds, more that classic family Italian restaurant that stays in business for generations because they do it right. Highly recommended. read more

Just ordered a score and within 3 minutes Glendower Jones called himself to confirm the order and fix an issue with the billing. He's a very kind, helpful man! My only complaint is that they really need to have someone standing by ready to take calls and answer questions. I tried calling BEFORE purchasing the order to make sure I was about to order the correct item, and I could only get through to an answering machine, which in 2013, is frustrating. I will continue to order from them. They have good prices, a HUGE selection of scores and are quick to contact you. Just realize you will probably have to reach out via e-mail or leave a message, as opposed to having someone answer the call on the first try. read more

Glendower knows all there is to know about vocal music. If he doesn't have it, he can get it, and if he can't, he'll let you know. He's also a distributor for some smaller early music imprints for hard to find stuff. He answers email promptly and gets product out quickly-- no small feat for what is practically a one man show. He's recently added a PDF service; extremely helpful for last minute needs. Glendower will often add things to the service on request. I've always been grateful for his services, which grow ever more critical as more music stores close. read more

Glendower goes above and beyond when it comes to serving his customers. His expansive collection of music is ever expanding and I can not find better prices that are attached to such great service. Did I say service???? Yeah. He's is the best read more

Dealing with Glendower has been nightmare. I placed an order on June 12, 2018. After hearing nothing about my order, other than I submitted it, I started emailing and calling him. On June 23, I finally received an email that the order was submitted to Hal Leonard Music, my order was completed and I should be receiving it from Hal Leonard by first class mail. It is now June 28, I still have not received the sheet music and have not received any word as to when it might arrive. Had I known this company would just order it from Hal Leonard Music, I would have placed the order directly there myself - and recommend that you do the same. read more
