Commissioning a new piece is a compelling way to share your ensemble’s story and engage your audience. Oliver composes for a diverse range of instrumentations from chamber ensembles to full orchestra, chorus and concert band. Want a string quartet? No problem. Or perhaps you always thought someone should write a duet for piccolo and tuba? It’s your choice!
WHY COMMISSION?
- Engage your audience and musicians by sharing classical music as a living art form and offering a window into the compositional process.
- Celebrate your community by commemorating milestones, seminal people or places.
- Showcase your ensemble’s talent with music custom-tailored to highlight its strengths.
- Create an artistic legacy by contributing a new piece of music to the repertoire, forever bearing your ensemble’s name.
PRIVATE COMMISSIONS
In addition to his work for established ensembles, Oliver accepts a limited number of private commissions each year. Commissioning classical music is a beautiful way to share your personal story.
