The roster
`/roster` is the searchable index of artists and ensembles available to engage. Filter by instrument, repertoire, base city, or fee range. Each entry links to the artist's folio.
Listings stay hidden until verification and readiness requirements are met — the roster is not a directory of intent, it is a directory of artists you can actually engage today.
Filing a request
From any folio, "Request a hold" opens the form. You provide the date, venue, fee range, and programme note; the artist's office responds. See Request and hold, step by step for the full lifecycle.
If you are unsure of the right artist for a programme, save candidates to a talent pool first and decide as a team.
Season planning and talent pools
A Season Plan is a workspace board that lays out your concert calendar with slots. Each slot can hold one or more candidates; advancing a slot files the request-hold and converts the slot to a confirmed booking when the Contract is signed.
Talent pools are private shortlists — by series, by genre, by anything you find useful. They are workspace-private. Sharing a pool with a colleague requires inviting them to your workspace.
PO-friendly procurement
Organization Professional, Professional Plus, and Enterprise add the surfaces a procurement office needs:
- W-9 / vendor docs on file per artist or agency, ready to attach to contracts
- PO numbers carried through requests, quotes, contracts, and invoices
- Approval chains — a finance director can require sign-off before any Quote is accepted
- Budget tracking against a season plan, with variance flagged when a commitment exceeds the slot's budget
Enterprise Organization adds custom terms, dedicated account management, procurement workflow setup, and SSO roadmap review for institutions that need it.
The standing relationship
Repeat engagements with the same artist do not require restarting from `/roster`. From a closed engagement, "Engage again" pre-fills the next request. The relationship history is preserved across seasons.
Where to next
- Billing — what you pay, when
- Safety and trust — verification and audit
- For artists — what the artist sees on the other side
