Engraving Services
Make a lasting impression. High-quality engraving goes hand-in-hand with high-quality printing to put your best foot forward and minimize wasted time during rehearsals.
Everyone has their compositional tools of choice: some write by hand, some prefer to write in a DAW. Even if you prefer to write directly into music notation software, your work will benefit from the engraving expertise of a professional. Notation software is an indispensable tool, but it doesn’t automatically create perfect professional charts.
I am proficient in the latest versions of Finale, Sibelius and Dorico, and upon request will use whichever software you prefer to facilitate the collaboration process. I also have Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to assist in the production of front matter such as covers, dedications, and performing instructions. Upon request I will create cover pages for your parts in my signature house style.
Deliverables include PDF Files of the completed scores. I will also provide for free upon request: MIDI realization, MusicXML, and the notation software files.
Please feel free to contact me at taran@editionsplamondon.com for a quote for your project. I calculate my competitive rates based on a proprietary formula accounting for page size, raster size, estimated number of pages, and other miscellaneous factors. Before beginning, I will give you a price guarantee up front, so there are no surprises.
Did I mention I provide free revisions? I’m not a mind-reader, so I’m always happy to issue corrections and changes based on feedback to make sure the final product is just right.
