With youth and non-professional ensembles across the world developing innovative and brilliant ways to make music in response to the Covid–19 pandemic, George Morton has created a series of orchestrations specifically aimed at socially distanced orchestras and ensembles. 

• These arrangements are designed to be played by non-professional and youth ensembles.  Each work comes with a recommended ability level

• Each arrangement is designed that every musician has an interesting, fun and challenging part

• Each arrangement can be adapted to fit your specific requirements. For no extra cost, the orchestration can be adapted to remove the trumpet part or add a horn part.  Further alterations will be charged with price on application.  If you'd like to discuss the options available please get in touch here

• You can choose to receive a score and set of PDFs licensed for use with one ensemble OR a professionally printed set.  Printed sets should arrive within 7 days of ordering and will include a string set of 3.3.3.2.1., with an option to download PDFs for more string desks)
