Commission

Commissioning a brand-new work is an exciting endeavor and I'm thrilled to have your consideration! I treasure collaborating with conductors, performers, and ensembles to create music that fulfills their spirit and needs.

I’m open to receiving commissions for a variety events and ensembles. It's best to contact me 12-18 months before you'd like the score in your hands as this is generally how far I book out my schedule. (That being said, there is always a possibility that my schedule has freed up, so feel free to check in). This timeline allows me enough time for planning/research, searching for or commissioning new texts (if applicable), writing, editing, and score/part creation. Of course, some exceptions can be made to this and I am open to a bit of a quicker turn around depending on the circumstances (i.e. length of piece, size of ensemble, fees). Final rates will depend on a number of factors including the size of the ensemble and instrumentation, the length of composition, and time allowed for the creation of the work.

Please contact me to discuss your commissioning request!
