How it works
“A Celtic processional for whistle, fiddle and bodhrán, building to a full band.” Or upload a score and ask for something built on it.
Larkato reads the brief, suggests a style and prices every composer for it, with how long each will take. Nothing is spent until you pick one.
A plan, the themes, each section in turn, then dynamics and phrasing. The score fills in as you watch, and a pass that fails is refunded.
Composers and styles
Each composer is named for a musical city. Leipzig Thought is Leipzig given longer to think; Vienna is a different, stronger model. The style is what the music is: any style, choral for voices, or classical for the concert hall. A bigger plan buys more pieces; a dearer composer buys more thought on each one.
Leipzig
Quick, and what most pieces want. Pass prices as listed on the pricing page.
13 credits · about 3 min
Leipzig Thought
The same composer, thinking longer at every step and reviewing every section it writes. Four times the pass price.
52 credits · about 15 min
Vienna
Our strongest composer, thinking hard at every step and reviewing every section. Ten times the pass price.
130 credits · about 15 min
Prices for a typical four-section piece; the exact price is on screen after the plan, before a note is written. If the plan comes out bigger than the estimate you chose, the run stops and asks again.
What you get
Playable by real players. Ranges and transpositions from a registry — a clarinet part comes out in the clarinet's key.
Dynamics and articulation. A dedicated pass writes them across every voice, and they travel in the file.
Yours to change. Rewrite a section, swap an instrument, change key — while locking the themes you keep.
