Written music

Are you a singer or instrumentalist? Will you be performing in theatres, cruise ships or for private and corporate functions? Or will you be recording your music in a studio?

We consider your artistic needs very carefully and write arrangements accordingly. What works for a 9-piece band on the cruise ships will be different from a live gig with a 5-piece band or a full orchestra in a theatre.

So your musical style, band/orchestra line-up and performing platform are all important factors that we take into careful consideration, so that we can deliver clear, precise and great sounding arrangements to you – and always on time.

Here’s an overview of what we can provide for you.

Arrangements

Our specialty is in producing an original arrangement of any song or instrumental piece, in any style, for any combination of instruments to meet your exact requirements – whether it’s for solo voice and piano or a full symphony orchestra. If you have further ideas about how your music should be arranged, such as adding extra instrumentals, extended musical sections and/or outros, we can incorporate those requests into the work.

Orchestrations

We can take an existing piece of music and orchestrate it for any line-up you require – whether for a small or large sized band/orchestra.

Transcriptions

We also transcribe, clearly and accurately, music from MP3s, YouTube clips or any other media type that you supply to us. The transcription can also be adapted to suit your needs.

Music preparation

If you have existing music that needs re-copying, with or without further edits, we can also do that for you. In preparing your music, you can also have a choice of fonts, layouts and branding.

Supply of music

Once your music charts are ready, we can either email them to you as PDFs, or we can print, tape and post the fully prepared hard copies to an address of your choice.

Music from file

Years of working in the music industry means we have a large catalogue of arrangements and transcriptions that can be purchased, quickly and easily. Please contact us for further information.

Advice

Whatever your queries are, we are here to help! We have helped hundreds of solo performers and companies over the last 35 years, putting together their shows, concerts and recordings around the world. We can offer you all aspects of advice, from (but not limited to):

Creating a whole show, from start to finish
Choosing great songs that will work for your show
What’s required when working with musicians at rehearsals and concerts
Tips and tricks when printing music charts
Implications of particular band line-ups, instruments etc. – whether this is for your own show or for a pre-existing band line-up e.g. on cruise ships
Although we don’t produce click tracks and backing tracks ourselves, we can handle the supply of these extra services as we regularly work with many top-rated studios who can provide these tracks. All you need to do is leave it with us!
