Client Testimonials
"Anita Cracauer has arranged for me at Urbandale High School for the past five years. She has the ability to write to your needs. Both Studio 2006, our Varsity Show Choir, and Vitality, our Prep Show Choir, have enjoyed performing her arrangements. Her prices are great and she gets it done on time. Last year I just couldn't decide on our ballad and by November I still had nothing. I called Anita, asked her help, and in two weeks had a piano/vocal score in my hands."
Steve Woodin, Urbandale High School, IA
"Anita Cracauer has been a delight to work with. Not only does she customize every single arrangement to compliment my choir, she ensures that each arrangement makes my choir sound marvelous. If I ever have an issue with any aspect of any arrangement (which is extremely rare), she works closely with me to get the right balance for which I am looking. Her current library of music is varied and outstanding and she works diligently to make each arrangement special. You don't just get a "canned" arrangement, you get something that will really set your choir apart! It has certainly done so for my choirs in the past 7 years that I have been working with her. She is simply the best arranger I have had the pleasure to work with."
Heath Weber, Sioux City East High School, IA
"Anita's arrangements are an integral part of our success. Anita is great to work with, she is fast and her arrangements work well. She will customize your chart exactly as you like. You can work with her so that your chart fits the specific needs and strengths of your ensemble or you can let her creativity guide your chart. She is full of great ideas, so either way you will be completely satisfied."

"Over the past 5 years, Anita has arranged pieces for about a dozen schools I choreograph. Her arrangements are thoughtful and creative, and I love the fact that things are done on time! She's easy to work with, very flexible with suggestions, and strives to give you the exact product you want. I appreciate her business ethics and directors trust her musical artistry."
Damon Brown, Stagevisions Choreography
"I am impressed with Anita Cracauer on many levels! Her arrangements are well written, easy to read and she readily adapts to specific needs and changes. The charts are in good ranges for the singers and the instrumental writing is superb! More importantly she is prompt, highly organized and enthusiastic about her work. What a joy to work with someone with so much talent! I highly recommend her to all of my friends and colleagues."
Nancy Allen, Viterbo University, WI
"Anita Cracauer's work has been invaluable to our program. As a former high school choral director, she is well aware of appropriate writing for high school voices, as well as for high school instrumentalists. Her arrangements are accessible, yet challenging. Her work is always timely and she follows up on every piece to make sure we are satisfied. We would be lost without her!"
Niccole Goulet, Kennedy High School, MN
"This year was our first year using Anita as our arranger. Her arrangements are great. I'm positive that they will be the highlight of this year's show. I highly recommend Anita as an arranger. I will be using her arrangements for years to come."

"I have been using Anita's arrangements for a few years now and am very pleased. Last year she arranged our entire show and I love the fact that she caters to your every need within the music. Her skills as a choral arranger are wonderful and she has great intuition into the style of the songs. I truly enjoy her arrangements and know that you will as well."
