The operating system for the orchestral world.
Instrumentation, economics, and performance intelligence for conductors, professional orchestras and opera houses. Built to international orchestral standards by people who bring the score to life.
Working through an AI assistant? Hand it this and it can answer repertoire questions from the catalogue directly.
The canon outgrew its catalogue.
Reference books list instrumentation. They do not cost a hire, track a cycle, or remember what sold. Ginastera does all three, in one place.
The software
One engine, five instruments.
Catalogue
8,490 works across 812 composers and growing, presented in international instrumentation shorthand, sourced from industry-recognized editions. Unverified scoring marked TBD until fully vetted.
Season Planner
Multi-tier repertoire cycles, building box-office predictive capability.
Performance Log
Documented concerts from the 1824 premiere of the Ninth to last season, navigable by conductor, orchestra, or piece.

Institutional and Conservatory run the same engine for staff. Conservatory adds seven seats and student places. Extra seats can be added to either.
A student place is for the people who PLAY in the school's ensembles: they get the catalogue, the archive, the Accompanist and the reference shelf, they use none of the twelve staff seats, and they never see the school's roster, budgets or box office. The school names its own email domains and each student confirms their address.
Generated from the same entitlement map the server enforces — this table cannot promise something your subscription would be refused.
