Not only is he one of the most accomplished musicians I’ve ever worked with (and I run a band of 48 members!), he is an astute professional with an excellent attitude and strong interpersonal skills. I couldn’t recommend him enough and you will only be “blown” away if you hire him!!"

All of my guests commented on how amazing he was from playing old school to current hits. He was such a delight and as someone who knows nothing about playing a musical instrument, I left it all in Masons hands and he went beyond my expectations. Mason, Thank you truly for creating such a special night. It was amazing!!" Based in London, England (106 miles from Bristol) Victoria - 30th Great Gatsby

Frequently asked questions

Hiring a composer or arranger typically costs between £75 and £850+, with an average of £250. The price depends on the professional's experience, the scope of the project and the time involved. Rates vary significantly depending on whether the booking is for composition, arrangement, musical direction or a combination of these services.

The composers and arrangers on Gig Heaven offer a range of services including original music composition, arrangement of existing songs for specific ensembles, musical direction for live shows or events, orchestration and transcription. Many also offer production and recording services.

Popular occasions for hiring a composer or arranger include weddings requiring original music, theatre productions, corporate films, advertising campaigns and live shows that need a musical director. 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. It is advisable to make contact as early as possible, especially for original compositions or complex arrangements.
