Organists acquire a great deal of sheet music during their carreers. [This is changing as more music is issued as PDFs and people use iPads to read scores]
When an organist passes on the task of disposing of his or her music falls to the bereaved. Clearly a lot of money has been invested over time and simply to recycle it (i.e. throw it away) is a difficult pill to swallow. There is a website which will buy old music.
In my association, one member has been handed the music from a past member and - gradually - it is being sold. There must come a time when nobody will want the remainder, I feel.
