Photo of Solo Singers Performing Live to track Solo Singers Performing Live to track "It is an honor to love on this woman of God and to share how amazingly gifted and talented she is. Tara Willis has a sincere and authentic heart for God, and it shows and comes through in her highly anointed music and in her presence and delivery. She is a strong, skilled, and capable lyricist, singer, composer, and producer who seeks God and allows Him to speak and move through her. Her music aids in the creation of spaces that welcome in Holy Spirit and prepare the place for worship and praise, which flow into opportunities for deliverance, healing, and drawing closer to God. In addition, Tara is extremely competent and professional and operates in and with a spirit of excellence. It is a pleasure to have witnessed her in service to God."

Frequently asked questions

Hiring a composer or arranger typically costs between $100 and $1,500+, with an average of $340. 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.
