Understanding the roots of the orchestra and how it has adapted over time gives us a powerful insight into its capabilities today.

Understand The 'Balance Of Power'
Learn to appreciate the sonic differences when the number of players in a section changes and how that, in turn, affects the balance of the orchestra in terms of the other sections.

Using The Clefs, Transposing, And The Written Score
You'll learn which instruments are written in which clefs, which need to transpose and how to produce a full score for concert and film scoring projects.

Introduction To Score Editors And Notation Programs
How to generate a written score using score editing software.

Discover The Construction, Playing Techniques, And Roles Of The Instruments
We'll take you 'section by section' and 'instrument by instrument' so you can get a feel of what each instrument is capable of, both in terms of its range, its tonality, and the roles it plays in the orchestra.

Understand How To Write For Each Orchestral Section
Now that you’ve learned how to idiomatically write for each instrument and section, now you’ll discover how to write for each section depending on the role that it’s taking. For example, how to write for violins when you need that soaring strings melody singing on top of the orchestra. Or how to make the cellos and basses provide a cinematic solid low end. How to harmonize trumpets and trombones for that climatic heroic motive. Or haw to arrange woods if we want to color a high strings melody. For each section, you’ll have supporting examples that you can listen to and follow along so you understand how each section performs when it’s performing a melody, countermelody, background, bass… and how it sounds different depending on the voicing, unison, or octaves.

This is the case with rhythmic or timbral material that is often used in contemporary concert or film music.</p><p>But this is not the only scenario and we can also find non-pitched instruments featuring similar material. Sometimes, melodic material gets used in unpitched instruments using both the rhythmic and articulation patterns with a reinterpretation of the notes to fit the possibilities of the particular instrument. This is the case of bongos, congas, tom-toms or the like, where there is a set of different approximate pitches coming from the different sized versions of the instrument.</p><p>[vzaar=13262034]<br></p>',

Now that you’ve learned how to idiomatically write for each instrument and section, now you’ll discover how to write for each section depending on the role that it’s taking. For example, how to write for violins when you need that soaring strings melody singing on top of the orchestra. Or how to make the cellos and basses provide a cinematic solid low end. How to harmonize trumpets and trombones for that climatic heroic motive. Or haw to arrange woods if we want to color a high strings melody. For each section, you’ll have supporting examples that you can listen to and follow along so you understand how each section performs when it’s performing a melody, countermelody, background, bass… and how it sounds different depending on the voicing, unison, or octaves.

The range of techniques available to each instrument along with the possible combinations of those instruments results in a <b>'magic'</b> that is almost impossible to achieve in any situation.<br>&nbsp; <br>The problem is that many of us don't possess the training or experience to confidently generate a decent written score for a string quartet,<b> let alone a full orchestra</b>. And even though recent technology has developed to such a point that it’s possible to create a great sounding ‘mock-up’ with sample libraries and sequencers, unless you have a good knowledge of how all the instruments work and their <b>expressive capabilities</b> and limitations you are at a distinct disadvantage.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br>There is so much to consider.<br><br>Which instruments will be able to deliver <b>rich, emotional performances</b> you need and where are the sweet spots to help them <b>shine</b>? How do you ‘voice’ the sections to give maximum clarity, power, and impact? What instruments combine well to give <b>rich tonalities</b> and which instruments tend to<b> ‘mask’ </b>one another? How do you achieve <b>balance </b>with such a diverse group of timbres and dynamics?<br><br>And what if your director requires real musicians?&nbsp; Are you comfortable with generating an actual full written score for a small ensemble or even a full orchestra? <br></p>',

Understanding the roots of the orchestra and how it has adapted over time gives us a powerful insight into its capabilities today.

Understand The 'Balance Of Power'
Learn to appreciate the sonic differences when the number of players in a section changes and how that, in turn, affects the balance of the orchestra in terms of the other sections.

Using The Clefs, Transposing, And The Written Score
You'll learn which instruments are written in which clefs, which need to transpose and how to produce a full score for concert and film scoring projects.

Introduction To Score Editors And Notation Programs
How to generate a written score using score editing software.

Discover The Construction, Playing Techniques, And Roles Of The Instruments
We'll take you 'section by section' and 'instrument by instrument' so you can get a feel of what each instrument is capable of, both in terms of its range, its tonality, and the roles it plays in the orchestra.

Understand How To Write For Each Orchestral Section
Now that you’ve learned how to idiomatically write for each instrument and section, now you’ll discover how to write for each section depending on the role that it’s taking. For example, how to write for violins when you need that soaring strings melody singing on top of the orchestra. Or how to make the cellos and basses provide a cinematic solid low end.

Sometimes, melodic material gets used in unpitched instruments using both the rhythmic and articulation patterns with a reinterpretation of the notes to fit the possibilities of the particular instrument.
