Mapac Choral Folder in Black

Product Information

Magazine Holders: A magazine holder is a thin strip of plastic, with a long slot in it and three holes, to clip into your rings when you have a folder that has a 3-ring set of rings. The slot holds up to 11" tall music (not the taller A4 size). Thus, the Copland Fanfare shown above is for 3 Trumpets, 4 Horns, 3 Trombones, no Euphonium, 1 Tuba and Tympani. There is no separate number for Bass Trombone, but it can generally be assumed that if there are multiple Trombone parts, the lowest part can/should be performed on Bass Trombone. The Beethoven example is typical of much Classical and early Romantic fare. In this case, the winds are all doubled (2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets and 2 bassoons), and there are two each horns and trumpets. There is no low brass. There is tympani. Strings are a standard 44322 configuration (4 first violin, 4 second violin, 3 viola, 2 cello, 2 bass). Sometimes strings are simply listed as "str," which means 44322 strings.

This efficient choral music folder measures only 12.5"H x 10"W x1.75"H and so is compatible with most Wenger Folio Cabinets. The Performer choral music folder. A very lightweight choral music folder, designed specifically for performance.The double hinged spine folds square to fit books and large scores. Features The Performer choral music folder with 8 elastic cords will make holding your music while you are performing easy. In the third example, we have a rather extreme use of the system. It is an orchestral work for piccolo, 2 flutes (1 of whom doubles on piccolo), 1 oboe, 2 clarinets plus an additional bass clarinet, 1 bassoon, 2 horns, 2 trumpets (plus an optional 2 cornets), 3 trombones, no tuba, percussion, tympani, 6 first violins, 6 second violins, 4 violas, 3 cellos, 2 double basses, Eb clarinet (as an additional chair, not doubled), 5 saxes (soprano, 2 alto, tenor & baritone) & a trombone soloist. Sometimes there are instruments in the ensemble other than those shown above. These are linked to their respective principal instruments with either a "d" if the same player doubles the instrument, or a "+" if an extra player is required. Whenever this occurs, we will separate the first four digits with commas for clarity. Thus a double reed quartet of 2 oboes, english horn and bassoon will look like this:Made form hard wearing polypropylene, so it is durable enough to withstand classrooms and school choirs Choral folder sleeves High density plastic ‘living hinge’ is lightweight and comfortable in your hand. If you are looking for a folder that will lie completely flat, perhaps the Choir Binder, Accompanist, or Classroom Choir folderwill work better. If you have any questions or wish to have a chat about any of the above please do call us on 07795221110 and we will be delighted to help - best wishes, Andrew

Saxophones, when included in orchestral music (they rarely are) will be shown in the "other instrument" location after strings and before the soloist, if any. However for band music, they are commonly present and therefore will be indicated after bassoon as something similar to "SAATB" where S=soprano, A=alto, T=tenor and B=baritone. Letters that are duplicated (as in A in this example) indicate multiple parts. These can look amazingly elegant whether in colour (gold is the standard option) or blind debossed (i.e. indented into the folder using heat and pressure but no colour). I, and the choir are absolutely delighted with the folders, the logo looks great. Thank you for your brilliant service - I will be more than pleased to recommend you to anyone interested" Ian Lingwood from Chetnole Community ChoirNote that if none of our listed fonts matches your existing typestyle, we can print anything in any font when it is done graphically as a logo (details are in next folder customization tab for logos).

Pricing for Extended line lengths up to 45 characters (any longer line requires a different press): Excellent service and very professional look. Choir are impressed and did'nt think they would look as good as they do!" James Wilder - Master of Singing & Choral Music

We can imprint your folders with a logo, or imprint any text layout in any font exactly as you want, because it is done as an image.
