My wife's a musician/music teacher and has recently reduced her student load - leaving her more time to create new pieces and arrangements.
I just wanted to know if anyone in the community is an artist that has gone through the publishing process and would have any advice.
We've begun the process of looking into submitting her work to larger publishers, but with the internet killing a lot of local music stores and more and more people looking online for sheet music, we've wondered if it would be better to publish the music ourselves, or find a smaller independent music publisher.
Any advice or ideas of where to go for more information?

Is your wife publishing sheet music or recorded music? Pumpaudio.com is probably the best online music publishing service for recorded music, so I recommend checking them out at least.

Yeah, she's interested in publishing sheet music. But if she decides to go into recorded music, I'll keep pumpaudio.com in mind. Thanks!

You aroused my interest about music licensing so much that I actually made an article about it on my blog, you can check it out by going to my homepage from my profile link. But in general, magnatune.com, youlicense.com and pumpaudio.com are the best solutions for indie artists to get some licensing revenue.
