Pricing

One setup fee, then an annual fee sized to your roster

Two numbers, both published. A typical sixty-piece band pays $600 a year — about ten dollars per player, recoverable inside dues without a debate about raising them. Every feature is in that price, including the concert program builder.

One-time setup

From$1,500

A fixed, itemized scope — the number your board votes on once. Payable in two installments if that suits the treasurer.

Founding rate Currently $750 for the first three ensembles — terms just below.

  • Provisioning your own deployment and database
  • Branding: logo, colors and your ensemble's own wording
  • Importing your existing rosters and records
  • Domain and sending-email configuration
  • The public recruitment page
  • A live onboarding session for the board

Then, every year

From$360

Set once a year at renewal from your active roster. Sign a clarinet player in February and nothing changes until the next renewal.

  • Hosting, database and daily backups
  • Email delivery for notices and announcements
  • Security patches and product updates
  • Support for the board, including when officers rotate
  • A full data export whenever you ask for one

The annual fee by roster size

Bigger ensembles pay more in total and less per player. Your band is fixed at renewal from the number of active members on the roster that day.

Rehearsal Letter annual fee by number of active members
Active members Per year Works out to
Up to 30 $360 $12.00 per player
31 – 60 most common $600 $10.00 per player
61 – 100 $840 $8.40 per player
101 – 150 $1,080 $7.20 per player
Over 150 Let's talk Quoted to the roster

Only active members count. Alumni, board members who don't play, prospective players in the recruitment pipeline and dormant records are all free.

What legitimately pushes a quote above the starting figure

  • Messy migrations — several source spreadsheets, or records still on paper.
  • Google Drive sync, or a live integration beyond a pay-online link.
  • Several ensembles under one board sharing a roster.
  • Email deliverability work on a domain the board doesn't yet control.
  • Additional training sessions, or a mid-season handover to a new board.

The setup fee is refundable

Every ensemble gets its own build, so we don't offer a free trial — a trial would mean doing the whole job for a board that hasn't decided. This is the same promise from the other direction: if within sixty days of go-live your board decides Rehearsal Letter isn't what it wanted, we refund the setup fee in full and you keep the export. No conditions, no reason required.

No tiers

There is one version, and everything is in it

The two numbers above are the whole price list. There is no Essentials, no Complete, no per-officer seat, and no feature that appears greyed out with a padlock beside it.

Commonly on the upper tier elsewhere

  • Print-ready concert programs generated from the roster, repertoire, sponsors and gift records — imposed for folded booklet printing
  • Audience counts kept per performance, in the shape a grant report asks for
  • Donation records and donor acknowledgment letters
  • Grant reporting figures pulled from attendance and audience history
  • An audit log that survives a change of officers

Included at the price shown

All of it. The concert program builder is part of the portal at every roster band, not an add-on and not a seat you buy per show — which is unusual enough to be worth saying plainly, because the other systems that generate a program from their own records charge a monthly fee for it.

Rather than ask you to take that on faith, the whole feature list is written out just below — every line ticked, because every line is included.

Every officer who needs an account gets one. A treasurer, a secretary, a librarian and five section leaders do not cost more than one login.

The reason is not generosity. A hundred-player ensemble and a twenty-five-player ensemble need the same features and differ only in scale, so the roster sets the price and the feature list stays whole.

The whole list

Check it against what your board actually does

Every line below is in the price above, at every roster size. Nothing here is an upgrade, an add-on, or a seat you buy separately — so the useful exercise is not looking for what costs extra, it's looking for what's missing.

Ensemble

  • Rehearsal schedule with per-player RSVPs
  • Concerts with venue, admission and ticket details
  • Friends' concerts — other ensembles' dates, shared with your players
  • Repertoire per concert: composer dates, movements, soloists, duration
  • Roster by section, with principal chairs marked
  • Household grouping, so a family shares one set of records
  • Guardian contact details for players under eighteen
  • Seating charts, with a print view for the stage manager
  • Announcements, pinned or dated, board-wide or member-facing

Concert programs

  • Programs built from the roster, repertoire, sponsors and gift records
  • Imposed for folded booklet printing, or plain letter pages
  • Roster by section, chair or alphabetical; donors by fiscal year
  • An intermission you can toggle on and time, not fake it as a piece
  • Cover art uploaded and stored with the program itself
  • A public program page, with a QR code on the printed copy
  • Locked versions, so what went to the printer stays recoverable

Schedule & attendance

  • One calendar across rehearsals, concerts and meetings
  • A calendar feed each player subscribes to in their own app
  • Attendance taken by section leaders, not only the board
  • Each player's own attendance history, visible to them
  • Season attendance trends, for the board deciding on a rehearsal plan
  • Check-ins that surface a player quietly drifting away

Library & equipment

  • Music library with publisher, folder and what it cost
  • Owned, rented or borrowed — with the return date on rented parts
  • Equipment and instrument inventory
  • Loans, so you know which stand, case or tuba is with whom
  • Each player's own page of what they're holding
  • Documents with board-only visibility that genuinely holds

Board

  • Meetings with agendas and minutes attached to the date
  • Tasks with an owner, a due date and a priority
  • Recruitment, from the public join form through to first rehearsal
  • Members and access by role, including section leaders
  • An audit log that survives a change of officers
  • Notification settings, per officer and per player
  • Your own terminology and fiscal year start

Money

  • Budget lines by category, against what actually happened
  • Dues by term, with each player able to see their own standing
  • Sponsors and donors by tier, with contact history
  • Gift records and donor acknowledgment letters
  • Vendors, with contacts and what you last paid them

Grants & audience

  • Audience counts kept per performance, not guessed at in April
  • A counting link to hand a volunteer at the door
  • County and congressional district recorded per performance
  • Artists involved and paid, local artists, volunteers and hours
  • A per-concert flag for what counts toward a given report

Yours, not a vendor's

  • Your own domain, logo and colors, with no vendor badge
  • A public join page prospective players can actually find
  • Every officer who needs an account gets one, at no extra cost
  • Spreadsheet import at setup, and export of everything, any time
  • Board training at setup, so the handover isn't yours to run
