Specifically, if you want us to develop training aids for works not available yet in our catalogues, please specify the name(s) of the author(s) and titles you need, plus your preference for CMS and/or VS technology.

If you want that any training aids available already in our catalogues are modified to best fit your needs (e.g., pitch transpose, different tempo, etc.), please also specify the modifications required and any other relevant information.

Whenever you wish to receive CDs by post rather than downloading the CMS files, please also specify your name and complete post address, and the number of CD copies you wish to be shipped to you.

Everything we do is free of charge. We simply expect the reimbursement of the expenses (e.g., shipment costs, purchase of sheet music, etc.), and, if possible, make a donation of any amount. The only mandatory requirement is that Choralia maintains the intellectual property of the training aids, so that we can freely distribute them to any other choirs. This is the principle of mutual aid between choirs, that we strongly support: if now choir "A" supports the development of training aids that then will be also used by choirs "B", "C" or "D", in the future choir "A" will likely benefit from other works supported by choir "B" or "C" or "D" instead. We offer our time and expertise in favour of music and of the choral community.
