Welcome to the S4C Tenders homepage.
Hughes a'i Fab is a publishing company formed in Wrexham in 1824 and has been under the ownership of S4C since 1984. Over the years, it has published a vast array of musical and literary works and whilst it does not, at present, publish any new works, its catalogue of published works remains in use and available for exploitation. This includes the published sheet music, which S4C wishes to remain available for use and in active distribution. S4C therefore intends to offer a new licence to exercise the reproduction and distribution rights in the published sheet music and invites applications from those with an interest in doing so. Further details are included in the attached Invitation to Tender.
