Adam Wayne

Composer, arranger, and transcriber. Music written on a large scale, built on lyrical melody and the harmonic language of the late Romantics.

Available for commissions

Three ways I can help

Commissions

New music for orchestras, choirs, and ensembles, from the first conversation about the occasion to the parts on the stands.

What arrivesConductor's score on A3 (or Tabloid) · parts on A4 (or Letter) · playback render · rehearsal support
How commissioning works

Arranging

An arrangement written for the players you actually have, rather than the ones the original asked for. Copyright cleared before a note is written.

What arrivesPDF score and parts · a render your committee can hear before committing
How arranging works

Transcription

Send a recording, a rough chart, or a photograph of a manuscript. You get back a clean, engraved score, and parts if you need them.

How transcription works

Where do we start?

I.

Send what you have

A recording, a photograph of a manuscript, or just the occasion and the forces. Rough is fine; that's the normal starting point.

II.

Agree scope and price

I'll come back within two working days with what I'd do, what it costs and when it would be ready. No obligation at that stage.

III.

Receive score and parts

Engraved to a consistent house style, with a playback render so you can hear it before the first rehearsal.

Tell me about your project

Commissions, transcription, and arranging enquiries all start the same way. I reply within two working days.
