Hi Fabrizio,

I have been a long time fan of your Virtualsheetmusic.com page and I am interested in arranging and composing for you. In fact I have a lot of arrangments for violin and easy piano already , and I am working on a "international christmas collction" for easy violin right now.

I can assure you, that I have an extended background in music theory as well as in strings.

Sincerely,

Adrienn J.Salazar

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a professional Classical composer and arranger with years of experience in both fields. Naturally I work with Sibelius (version 5.25) on a daily basis. I should be very interested to work for your company and would be most grateful if you would consider me for such work.

Yours faithfully,

Dr Michael Ward

Hello, since attending music college in London, I have played in a professional string quartet, a jazz band and have been teaching.

For the quartet I have been arranging unusual requests for weddings for many years, ranging from Classical to pop and Rock.

With the jazz band I have been arranging for cello, violin, accordion, several types of sax, guitar and voice.

Throughout my teaching career I have been arranging for unusual combinations of instruments, as well as orchestral, choirs and bands.

I am very comfortable with Sibelius and use Sibelius 4

My particular interest would be arranging contemporary music for string quartet. I am comfortable with piano reductions, full score and also from ear.

I can be contacted on +357 96435181 or bluejarbelfast@googlemail.com

Respected sir I want this job, but where to be post, is it in India or Abroad. Please let me know. Thankyou . Balaram Dhand

Dear Mr Ferrari

I would like to express my strong interest in becoming a member of your team of composers/arrangers, as advertised on Musicians Page.

I have an MA degree in music from Oxford University, and am a French Horn, Baroque Recorder and Piano Accordion player. I was a prolific composer in my youth, and have now started again. I recently completed a 2-Act Music Theatre/Song Cycle piece called Desire which we hope to premiere in London around December 2009. I am currently working on my first full-length opera, but my earlier music was mainly chamber music - e.g. string quartets, wind quintets, vocal/choral pieces, etc, and many included piano. I received valuable support in my composition efforts from the conductor Norman del Mar, who used to conduct the Northern Junior Philharmonic Orchestra in the UK when I was a member, and then at Oxford from Robert Sherlaw Johnson. I also specialised in mediaeval and contemporary music while studing for my degree.

I am fluent in written and spoken German, and in written French (spoken is a bit rusty!). I also have a working knowledge of Czech. Jaz Coleman's opera Le Nozze di Cana, for which I was copyist, is entirely in Italian, and I collaborated with the Italian translator of the original English text in order to re-write the vocal lines in Italian. I have software which contains all the special letters for each language and many other languages besides. I imagine linguistic facility will be a great help in some of the vocal/choral arrangements.

I have been using Sibelius software for about 9 years now and am very proficient. I have worked as a copying for Jaz Coleman, Nigel Kennedy and Vasko Vassilev among others, and am one of the team of copyists for Petr Pycha in Prague - www.musa.cz I have also produced arrangements for orchestra and chamber groups of computer game scores, which were performed at special concerts devoted to this genre at the Leipzig Gewandhaus.

Although I am currently using Sibelius 4, I am planning to upgrade to v6 in the very near future.

I can be very flexible re working hours and availability, although if I am working on a big project with Jaz Coleman that would take me out of circulation for a few weeks or so at any one time. Other than that, I would be happy to take on significant amounts of work.

References, and examples of my work, can be provided on request.

I look forward to hearing from you in due course.

Yours sincerely

Peter Murphy MA (Oxon) PGCE

Dear Fabrizio Ferrari

I would like to apply for the job of Composer-Arranger with Virtual Sheet Music Inc. and believe I have the right kind of skills you are looking for.

I am a professional composer and arranger (please see my website www.lizlane.co.uk) and have just completed my PhD in Composition - I am therefore currently looking for this kind of work.

I collaborate regularly with the composer David Fanshawe and have, to date, arranged and inputted several of his major works, using Sibelius. I am also currently engraving the songs of the composer Muriel Herbert for the author and playright Claire Tomalin (her daughter).

In response to your advertisement:

1. I have a strong classical music knowledge and background (this is my area of expertise and what I am trained in).

2. I have extensive experience arranging/transcribing for classical instruments, also piano reduction and string quartet composition.

3. I have Sibelius 6 software (also 4) and am an experienced user.

I hope to hear from you.

With best wishes and thanks

Liz Lane

I submit myself as a candidate, provided that I can do the work in Finale instead of Sibelius (I can provide output in Finale, Postscript, or PDF). I am classically trained, have been composing for 30 years, especially for full orchestra, and was composer in residence of the Charlotte Philharmonic Orchestra [Charlotte, North Carolina] for five years.

Here is my personal website

http://www.mainlineopera.org/qwinter.htm

For seven years I was Composer in Residence for the Ohio Light Opera, providing orchestrations, reductions, expansions of all manner of material in French, German, Italian scores using all manner of arcane transpositions!. The current OLO CDs of The Red Mill, Eileen, Sweethearts and Robin Hood are from my reconstructions of the scores from the original manuscripts at the Library of Congress.

To whom it may concern:

I have composed and arranged many pieces over the years for concert band, jazz band and brass quintet. I have just composed a piece for concert band titled Fan Fare For Band. It lasts 2 1/2 minutes. I can email a PDF of the score of Fan Fare For Band to you for your inspection. At this time, there are two concert bands who have expressed interest in performing Fan Fare For Band. Although I use Finale (2010), I would be happy to aquire Sibelius at time of hire.

Musically yours, Don

I am writing in response to Virtual Music's search for Composers and Arrangers. I would like to request further information regarding the music to be arranged, and also the nature of the music required for composition.
