Commissioning a new piece of music whether for a soloist, chamber ensemble, or full orchestra can vary widely in cost. Prices depend on factors such as the work's length, complexity, instrumentation, the composer's experience, and the intended usage rights. Reach out for specific details.

A typical music commission outlines the scope, length, and instrumentation of the piece, along with the style or character desired. It sets a timeline for drafts, revisions, and final delivery of the score and performance parts, while clearly defining the composer’s fee, payment schedule, and any additional costs. The agreement also specifies usage and rights, including performance, recording, and copyright ownership, and may address premiere performance, credits, and revision policies. Essentially, it ensures both the commissioner and composer have clear expectations for the creation, performance, and distribution of the work.

Absolutely! We encourage meeting before the event to discuss the music preferences, and any special requests. This helps ensure that everything runs smoothly and that your vision is realized. Consultations can be either in person or virtually, depending on your preference.
