Up-Front Pricing
Organizing and planning a marching season is a very involved process, with a lot of moving parts. Let JFMS take some of the guess-work out of some of that process with Up-Front Pricing. So don't worry about waiting around for a price quote and take care of your show budget quickly and easily right here!
Purchased shows come with all scores and parts via PDF (or via post-mail if desired), as well as mp3 tracks to distribute freely to students and staff.
*Please note that all shows with RR (Rights Required/Copyrighted) music will need to have permission secured by the school requesting the arrangement. Permissions come with a nominal fee from the copyright holders. Assistance in securing permissions is available!

Commissioned Works
Commissioning an original composition or an arrangement is available for a negotiated price. Due to the many factors involved (such as band size, difficulty level, original vs. arrangement, show length, percussion scoring, amount of time to complete work, etc), a set price cannot be completely achieved until after a few informative exchanges between John and your band's designers. But here is a rough breakdown of what you could expect:
-Original composition - $1,250 - $2,500
-Public Domain arrangement - $1,000 - $1,500
-Copyright music arrangement - $1,000 - $2,000
*again, please consider that permissions need to be secured by the band program BEFORE work can begin
