About

This is the time of the contemporary A Cappella group! With the advent of the TV show "The Sing Off" and groups like Pentatonix, many A Cappella groups have formed-both professional, collegiate, and in high schools. These groups are hungry for good arrangements of songs- classic pop/rock, the newer hits, as well as solid songs that may be a little less well-known, but have a great melody, memorable lyrics, and a good groove. This project is to fund two main things: to launch the web site "TheACappellaHouse.com" which will be a site that showcases and offers for sale new A Cappella arrangements, and paying the licensing fees for the songs that are arranged. The A Cappella House is the web site that will be a main stop in the hunt for those arrangements. The licensing fees are paid to the companies that hold the rights to the songs I wish to arrange and make available to the public. The point of my arrangements is to stay as close as possible to the original artists' recording, in order to keep the style and spirit that the artists intended. There are a variety of styles, voicing, and subjects, and more are constantly on the way. No major publisher has ventured into this genre so completely-and those that try have arrangements that tend not to be close to the original - as many groups want. Once the web site is launched(it is already designed - it just needs to be loaded with the arrangements once the licenses are paid), the site will be the focal point for groups to come for the best arrangements, and to request songs as well. The Vocal Music World needs this!
