Which instruments will be able to deliver rich, emotional performances you need and where are the sweet spots to help them shine? How do you 'voice' the sections to give maximum clarity, power, and impact? What instruments combine well to give rich tonalities and which instruments tend to 'mask' one another? How do you achieve balance with such a diverse group of timbres and dynamics?
And what if your director requires real musicians? Are you comfortable with generating an actual full written score for a small ensemble or even a full orchestra?
Whether you're producing an orchestral mock-up in a sequencer or writing for a group of real players, if you want to deliver an impressive sounding result you'll need to have a sound understanding of the instruments you are writing for.
And our 'Instrumentation and Orchestration Basics' is designed to give you exactly that. You'll learn all you need to know about the instruments themselves, the range of sounds they are capable of, the roles they play in the orchestra and how to actually write for them to give your compositions the best chance to shine.
