Dulcamara Press was founded to uplift the voices of composers long-relegated to the margins because of gender, race, or ethnicity. That work is more important than ever. Hand-in-hand with making these works accessible and available is the responsibility to support communities that are at risk.
For the forseeable future, we will be donating 20% of the purchase of any score to legal aid organizations for immigration or reproductive justice.

Our Mission: to increase diversity and representation in classical music through the publication and promotion of both historical and contemporary classical music by composers from underrepresented populations.
Our goal is to facilitate the performance and awareness of music that has been overlooked, neglected, or otherwise unavailable. We are passionate about music by underrepresented composers from all historical eras, new music by living composers, and early music that has been previously unpublished or only available in scholarly editions with limited accessibility to performers.
Every edition from Dulcamara Press is researched with scholarly rigor and edited with meticulous care. Our scores are thoughtfully designed for clarity, readability, and practical performance use. Each score is printed on high-quality paper and hand-sewn in a durable, lay-flat binding that is made to last. Our beautiful designs, high quality printing and binding, and careful attention to notational nuance, page-turns, and readability make Dulcamara editions a pleasure to use for both performance and study.
