📩 General Inquiry
Hey! Thanks for reaching out. I'd love to help if I'm available. What date and time are you looking at?

🕐 Hourly Gig
Thanks for the details! My rate is $75/hour. I'm available on [DATE] - does that work for you?
📚 Junior High / Intermediate
For junior high and intermediate level, my rate is $35 per student. For [X] students, that would be $[TOTAL]. Let me know if that works!
🎓 High School - Standard
For high school accompaniment, my base rate is $70 per student for standard repertoire. For [X] students, that would be $[TOTAL]. Let me know if you'd like to move forward!
🔥 High School - Difficult Rep
Thanks for sending the rep list. I see some advanced works in there. My rates: - Standard repertoire: $70/student - Advanced works (Hindemith, Creston, Villa-Lobos, French conservatoire pieces, etc.): $100/student minimum Based on the list you sent, my quote would be $[TOTAL] for [X] students. If you'd like to adjust the assignments to reduce the difficult repertoire on my end, I'm happy to revisit the rate.
🎤 Masterclass / Clinic Quote
Thanks for reaching out! I'd be happy to do a masterclass/clinic. My rate is $[RATE] for a [DURATION] session. This includes performance and discussion of the repertoire. Let me know the date you're looking at and I can confirm availability!
⚠️ Bad Deal / Rep Dump
I appreciate you thinking of me. Looking at this list, it's mostly advanced repertoire (Hindemith, Creston, etc.), which requires significantly more preparation time. For this workload, my rate would be $100/student minimum. I can't go lower than that for this level of difficulty. If you're able to redistribute some of the harder pieces to another accompanist, I'd be glad to discuss a different rate for a more balanced load.
📅 Unavailable

Thanks for thinking of me! I'm going to have to pass on this one, but I appreciate you reaching out.
