Hire material

Welcome to our hire material department.

The Swedish Music Information Centre has about 3.500 unpublished Swedish symphonies, operas, etc, which can be hired for performances. Orchestras pay per performance, according to set rates. Special rates apply for radio broadcasts and recordings.

According to custom, the hire rate is based on the duration of a work and the instrumentation, the number of performances and whether it is a first performance or not. In the case of recordings a special rate per recorded minute applies to hire material. Orchestras and ensembles can borrow scores/piano reductions on perusal (free of charge) for a limited period.
