CHORAL ARRANGING WITH RYAN CAYABYAB

This situation may have happened to a lot of choristers and small singing groups like trios, quartets, etc.: For a wedding gig, you are asked to perform a particular song that your group has never sung before - a song that you have not yet seen on sheet nor have heard being sung by another group. You are now at a loss. So, you either ask client if you can sing another song, or have someone in your choir/group sing the song solo or as a duet with another. Its a solution, but for sure it is not totally gratifying.

An overview of choral arranging via Choral Arranging with Ryan Cayabyab at The Music School of Ryan Cayabyab can give you an option when caught in the aforesaid situation: Why not arrange the requested song for your choir.... and make your clients wedding even more special? This would definitely make a lasting mark on your group. When you are able to arrange for your group, you are not only granting your clients requests and fulfilling the requirements of your events; you are also giving your group an identity because the pieces are especially arranged according to the capabilities of your members. You are able to create music that is very specific to your group. The best part is, you dont have to ask for someone to arrange songs for your group all the time and you wouldnt have to frantically look for the requested pieces.
