The project can be as simple as a client providing me with an MP3 of a song, which I listen to and then notate for purposes of live performance. More commonly, I custom-fit music to be performed by a specific ensemble; this could be any combination and number of instrumentalists and vocalists, at a specific skill level — ranging from middle school groups to top level professionals. The goal is for the printed or recorded music I provide to translate the client’s vision into the perfect musical performance for their specific needs.
How to proceed: The best way to begin a project is to send an email to me through my contact page describing your project. We can then begin the discussion of what you need as deliverables. This will be either notated charts (musical scores and parts) or audio files of fully produced music tracks or both. From this information we can establish a timeframe and budget.
