Arrangements exceeding 2.5 minutes are calculated at $2 per additional second. You are welcome to calculate an estimate using my pricing model, however, please refer to me for a final quote. Please note that arrangements exceeding 4 parts will incur additional charges. 

**Please consider us if you need vocal learning tracks for your arrangement! We make excellent learning media that is competitively priced.**

After you pay the customary $150 deposit, I will assess the song and reach out to you with an initial cost estimate. Once started, I will send progress updates and will always provide updates regarding cost. The remaining balance due will be collected upon delivery.

NOTE: To be considered “legal” to perform, a “song” licensing fee must be paid by you, the customer, directly to the publisher who controls the copyright of the song you had arranged.

To assist with this process, I will provide the publisher’s contact information upon delivery.

Initially, I offered the BOGO as short term incentive but because it was so successful, I decided to adopt its pricing model permanently!

To make it simple, I offer one arrangement + learning tracks combo for $100, or two for $100. Easy choice!

In recent years, Hal Leonard Publishing Corp. and Alfred Music Co., both of whom control the “print” licensing for the vast majority of songs we want to sing, have made it increasingly difficult and expensive to get sheet music (barbershop arrangements).

Due to profit restrictions established by copyright holders/publishers, arrangers are prohibited from charging any fee other than that for initial commission.

Because audio recordings (i.e. vocal learning tracks) are not under music publisher’s control, I sell my arrangements in conjunction with my learning tracks, charging $0 for my arrangements and $100 for vocal learning tracks of two songs. This ensures both continued compensation for my efforts and compliance with their rules.

**The Customer is responsible for paying all licensing fees to the publisher who holds the song licensing.**

As mentioned previously, profit restrictions established by the copyright holders of 98% of the music we sing prohibit arrangers from “residual” profit on our arrangements.

The average price of a full set of learning tracks for a single, already-recorded song is $95-100 and usually the artist who recorded the learning track is not who arranged the song.

Having created both the arrangement and learning tracks for over 50 years of charts, I have an extensive library of music that enables me to offer the “BOGO deal” my default pricing model.

To maintain competitive pricing, however, I cannot offer one song at $50.

Upon initial purchase, a download link is provided that is active for two weeks and/or three download attempts. If you have lost access to your tracks, please contact me to request a new access link.

Some songs in my library may have tracks that are either Instrumental/MIDI only, or were recorded in only one voicing, requiring a transposition up or down in pitch editing software. This doesn’t affect the learning process much, with some directors preferring a more “mechanical” teaching track for learning purposes.

With that said, Full Mix singles are most often purchased for listening pleasure, which justifies charging a small price for the single. Songs that have been transposed, or are Instrumental tracks only, do not meet my quality requirement, therefore I refrain from providing a Full Mix offering.
