Commissioning New
Works
Tony Cliff has been
commissioned for a wide variety of music
including brass bands, wind/jazz orchestras and
chamber groups as well as choirs and instrumental
soloists and he is always pleased to discuss new
potential composition or arranging commissions.
The timescale for production of a new work is
flexible but you should normally allow a minimum
of a month for completion of the score from the
date the commission is agreed. The costs
involved will naturally vary
depending on the length, complexity or size of
instrumental/vocal forces involved. Commissioning
a new work or arrangement will allow the band,
ensemble, orchestra or choir exclusive use of
this work for an agreed period of time. In
addition there is normally a dedication placed
beneath the title page of the published (or
unpublished) score and parts making specific
reference to the commissioning body - whether it
be an individual, organisation, band,
ensemble, orchestra or choir. After publication
this dedication will continue to highlight your
commission for as long as the work is performed
and recorded.

The style and duration of the
piece will be agreed in discussion be to suit the
requirements of the commissioning organisation or
individual. Tony is an experienced music
typesetter and all final scores and parts are
printed using the latest Sibelius
score-writing systems ensuring that the work is
produced at publication standard. The conductor's
score may be produced at A3 size, portrait or
landscape format, if this is preferred.
