For Opera and Operetta in English

Reduced Orchestrations
Most of the shows published by Pavilion Music are accompanied by band parts in the original orchestrations. Details are given on the page for each show. For the most part this means a standard operetta orchestra of around 18 to 20 players. The grand operas, such as Carmen or The Devil and Kate, need a much larger orchestra. These days, however, many societies with either limited budgets or limited orchestra pits are only able to use much smaller ensembles. We have a panel of professional musicians who can produce reduced orchestrations for almost any size of band and combination of instruments. See also Theatre Music Editions.

Set Design and Advice
Stage sets are available on hire from the major suppliers, and advice can be given freely on request. For companies who like to build their own sets but do not have a designer, original professional set designs can also be commissioned for individual shows if desired.
New Translations
If you do not find what you are looking for in this catalogue, we will be pleased to offer advice on alternative sources or shows.
