So, what exactly is music preparation? Most industry professionals define it as the process of transforming a completed composition into the performance materials musicians need to bring the music to life.
Before an ensemble can perform together, each musician typically requires professionally prepared, readable sheet music. Once a composer has completed a piece, the music preparation team—which may include an arranger, orchestrator, copyist, proofreader, and librarian—each plays a distinct role in producing accurate, clearly notated materials that are ready for rehearsal and performance.
