1 AnswerMathematics7 years agoWhat is the best way to promote an album of classical music composed and performed by a 13 year old boy?
The album (named "From me to you") consists mainly of the compositions of a 13 year old boy named Shane Thomas, a superb young musician whose website is www.shanethomas.co.uk.
I am aware of the website www.bandcamp.com, so no points for mentioning it.
Could a radio advert be the best way forward, I wonder?
