Special event, anniversary, something to celebrate,all good reasons to commission a piece of music for your group.... and at a fixed price accessible to all!
Every year we offer a Free Christmas Carol Competition where a lucky choir wins a free commissiopn, but why wait till Christmas,
Because I believe that newly commissioned music should be available to anyone here are my 5 steps to commissioning for 2012... now for the first time commissioning is easy and affordable!
- Decide what you want - a small scale anthem for a choir of limited vocal resources, a song for a friend, a Orchestral piece, a new arrangement of an old text or tune, decide when you need it by and when its first performance.. then get in touch
- Recieve a quotation and decide how you are going to fund it,are you applying for grants, using your own funds,having a fund raising event or collecting subscriptions towards it
- Receive your agreement, arrange how many copies you will need,arrange and discuss publicity
- Sign agreement return with 30-50% deposit and work starts
- Collect your commission,( all commissions include a set of music) begin rehearsing and planning your publicity and perfrom!
Its as simple as that and the cost.... look on the internet and you will see commissions starting at about £260 for a minute of music... I do many commissions that start at that for a full piece and my prices are with copies supplied!
Get in touch I would love to hear from you!
