Arranging Cost Estimates
My rates are very competitive. I'm looking to do high quality arranging and engraving work for low prices. This is meant to keep personalized arrangements affordable for everyone from high school music programs to artists who don't want to break the bank to add a song to a set or album.
Pricing is based on creation of the score. The score length is determined by the number of pages and the number of instruments in the score. A page is defined by the American Federation of Musicians as 4 bars to a page.
Parts can be created for your specific orchestration. They can be delivered electronically for free as pdfs, or mailed as physical copies for an additional $10-$20 depending on the size of the ensemble. Part creation is $15/hour, but will be quoted at the start of the project and billed as a flat rate.
The cost of an arrangement is based on various factors. One way to decrease the cost from the start is to make sure there is written music available for the source music. Examples of this may include piano reductions or lead sheets. Without this source material, there will be an additional cost for transcription at a rate of $65/hour. This will also be estimated and billed at a flat rate.
