About Me
Ever since I came home from my first piano lesson at the age of four, music has been part of my life. I spent my teenage years writing songs and playing in orchestras, picked up composing and went on to become a freelance musician. Today, I write arrangements and compose for film and musical theatre.
I began arranging by accident: My local orchestra wanted to play pieces for which there were simply no scores – so they asked me to write them. I liked the process and they liked the result, so I founded Fischer Arrangements. My goal: to help musicians bring their creative vision to the stage – with arrangements that are made to fit.

My Work
I want my arrangements to be just as fun to play as they are to listen to. That’s why I always write with the performer in mind – if I would enjoy playing the piece myself, then it’s just right!
Writing arrangements is easy… But only a few can capture the soul of the music on paper.
Julius is one of these rare and very special talents!
Andreas Luketa
Concert Promoter and Producer
Julius is a talented young arranger with great musical sensibility.
As conductor, I could always introduce my musical ideas. This close collaboration resulted in very impactful arrangements my orchestra enjoys rehearsing and performing again and again.
Working with Julius was not only professional and constructive, but also very collegial.
Philipp Niersmans
Conductor
Working with Julius is quick and straightforward – he immediately understands how we envision the arrangements.
Julius customises all arrangements individually by listening to our demos and incorporating feedback.
We couldn’t be happier with the result!
Sven
Musical Director
Julius’ arrangements are well thought-out, stylistically accurate and perfectly tailored to our line-up.
He brought out the various timbres of our orchestra sensibly and adjusted individual parts according to the players’ experiences and abilities.
Small revisions were possible anytime, even after the arrangements were already finished and played in concert. It is always a pleasure to work with him.

What happens after my request?

As I work, I’ll send you regular demos and excerpts to ensure the piece stays true to your vision. Once everyone is happy, I’ll send you the completed arrangement with individual parts and audios for rehearsing. If any issues come up during rehearsal, I’m happy to further adjust the arrangement for you!
Can you explain the pricing?
The price is determined by various factors such as the length, complexity, and instrumentation of the arrangement. Since large compositions like orchestra suites are more complex to write, they will usually cost more.
Will the arrangement also be published?
No. The arrangement is 100% yours and will not be published.
