The world is still on a downwards spiral economically. TBH, I don't see a huge upswing in high end arrangers. The writing is on the wall, and in all honesty, it is good news for us...

When have low priced arrangers ever sounded better or been more capable? Most of them rival the $4000+ arrangers of just a few years ago, at a quarter of the price. This, in my book at least, is a great thing!

Although it’s true that North America and Europe are still in the doldrums, and probably in decline, the world is a much, much bigger place. The balance of wealth is shifting.
