The consortium system
In a collective spirit initiative, I have decided to open this work to come to life as a consortium. I think the value of US$ 300 per band is adequate. The doors will be open until the consortium is completed.
The good news is that since the piece has a fixed cost, the more bands are part of this family, the lower the cost of the fee.
To ensure transparency in the process, you can see this excel spreadsheet. Here I will be adding interested people who make a small deposit to confirm their participation.
As I know that many budgets have been refined, you can privately agree on the most convenient payment model for you. If you want to participate, you can pre-register for free here and I will contact you as soon as I gather the minimum number of members needed.
Sheet Music Delivery Date: 6 weeks after completing the consortium.
Fees are calculated as u$ 1200 and that amount is divided by the total number of bands. The minimum number of bands is 4 . The initial fee for each band is u$300. The greater the number of bands, the lower the fees each band will face.
