Coronavirus Updates
Monday 28 September 2020
My online shop is open and operating as normal but due to new restrictions and a Welsh Gov request to reduce journeys I have reduced my posting trips from daily Monday to Saturday to three postings a week which will be on Monday, Wednesday & Fridays. I need to leave my office at 15:45 (London Time) to catch the last post which is currently also earlier than normal due to Covid changes by Royal Mail.
Monday 6 July 2020
Our online shop is open and operating as normal but please note that there are still delays with some international deliveries due to the reduction of the number of international air flights. Packets going abroad from the UK might be held by the courier for a few days while waiting for cargo space. The same applies to new stock arriving with us but if we are out of stock of any product you should not be able to add it to your basket. As international flights increase all deliveries will start returning to normal time scales.
Tuesday 5 May 2020
Our online shop has reopened and is taking orders. For the moment orders are being posted on a weekly basis.
Monday 23 March 2020
In light of the UK Prime Minister Statement made at 8.30pm on Monday 23 March 2020 and given the fact that I do not have my post collected but always take it to the Post Office in person I feel that the only responsible action I can take is to temporarily suspend sales from my online shop. I run Creighton's Collection on my own from my home and this is the first time since I started Creighton's Collection in 2003 that it has shut. I will open again as soon as I can and apologise for any inconvenience this temporary closure may cause. |

Beyond The Clouds £14.00 An Ode to Climate Change
Skaila Kanga
This work has been commissioned by the Royal Academy of Music as part of their 200th Anniversary celebrations in 2022. It was founded two hundred years ago in 1822 by John Fane and Nicholas-Charles Bochsa, a harpist of great renown! As a former student, Professor of Harp and Head of Department at this historic institution for many decades, I have tried to create a piece based on a vital issue of our time, namely climate change. The performance begins with a narration by the harpist, which describes our human dilemma and hope for future generations. Many friends across the world have translated the narration and I extend my huge thanks to them for their brilliant contribution.

This is a book of simple, progressive tunes suitable for any harp with 26 or more strings.

My own students are a lovely mixture of adult beginners and child learners and I have found that the tunes included here have worked well with students of all ages.

find out more | | The Wayfaring Stranger £8.50 Trad. arrnged Andy Scott
Edited Lauren Scott
A beautiful and melancholy traditional tune, that lends itself to arranging with many varied and wonderful arrangements available. Andy Scott arranged The Wayfaring Stranger for the 'Ever Open Door' CD collaboration with John Helliwell (Supertramp), releasing October 2020 (Challenge Records). Scored for clarinet, string quartet and hammond organ, it takes a harmonic journey with twists and turns through many keys; fairly chromatic at times, simple and open at other times. With careful damping, nimble pedal work and focussing on phrasing, Lauren Scott has created a version of this arrangement for solo harp.
