Custom Arrangements
An arrangement can be done of an existing work for another
instrumentation (such as from piano music to string quartet). Often
clients ask for a custom arrangement for a special event (such as a wedding) in
order to get exactly what they want.
Transcriptions
Transcribing work is performed when there is no previously printed music, therefore a recording must be listened to carefully in order to create sheet music. This can be done for original compositions, or a very popular piece that has never been written down.
For original works, the recording should be made using the best quality equipment and media (for example, a high quality cassette) available to the composer. A muffled recording or ambient room noise will lengthen the time it takes to transcribe a piece.
Rate
The rate for either a custom arrangement or transcription is $20 per hour. Please contact us for an total estimate of your particular piece.
