Charnwood Music was established in 1958 by Francis Wright in Leicester, England with a view of encouraging British composers to write and expand the literature for the standard bass piano accordion. The name Charnwood was the name of his street while the emblem "Old John" Castle was a landmark in the Charnwood Forest, Leicestershire. Charnwood is a member of the PRS (Performing Rights Society – United Kingdom) and the MCPS (Mechanical Copyright Protection Society). In later years, Francis Wright added music for free bass, duets and ensemble/orchestra music as well as music for guitar and keyboard. Following the death of Francis Wright in 1997 (aged 80), and the retirement of the other owners Jessie Wright and Pauline Noon, Charnwood Music was offered to Anna and Raymond Bodell, well known personalities in the UK accordion world, on the basis that they would retain in print all the music for the accordion. This was considered quite important following the loss of many other accordion publishing companies in the United Kingdom. It is planned to expand the catalogue for the accordionist in the 21st Century.
