He took us through a lot of options and we went for light music during photos and with our DJ for the reception. Having Simon play was a real highlight of the day. He was amazing and so many guests said just how fun it was. There were a few songs me and Steve really wanted - he really got what we were looking for with the music for the day. We loved him and I don’t think it would have been quite the same without him playing and the atmosphere he naturally brought. Great guy and a really great day" Based in Wellington, New Zealand (1,557 miles from Brisbane) Lacey Mulhearn - Wedding Photo of Chill Sessions Records Chill Sessions Records "So awesome to see the co-creative potential made manifest in such a tangible way, thanks for being part of the magic that was Luminate 2019!!"

They are also a strong choice for events where existing music needs to be arranged for a specific ensemble or performance style.

Many composers can write original music tailored to the specific needs of an event, production or project. This might include a first dance song, a corporate jingle, background music for a video or a full score for a live show. It is worth discussing the brief in detail with the composer.

Because composing and arranging requires time for creation, review and rehearsal, a composer or arranger typically needs more lead time than a standard performer. Several weeks to a few months is common, depending on the complexity of the project.
