One of the best content creation about orchestration. Im so grateful.
As I told you before you are the best orchestration teacher ever.
Thank you so much for making this video it will help me more when I teach my students.
Thanks Abdulaziz. I am very glad you liked my teaching! Hope you will enjoy it!
Clearly, one of the best introductions to orchestration ever. Very well done!
@@thesecretsoforchestration You're welcome. Much deserved. Have a nice evening.
This is just excellent information. Thank you! Your explanations make everything so much clearer. Of course I have heard of the harmonic series, but you have put it into exact and usable context. Thanks again.
Amazing video, cannot believe this is for free. You are a very good teacher
You are an excellent teacher! Your explanations and visuals are astounding! Thank you!
Just wow, your video is pure gold. Amazing info. Thank you my friend!
That was awesome! I really suggest the actual lessons to everyone 👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks Rovshan for this very good video... You are a very good teacher and all your explanations are easy to grasp. Kind regards and blessings, Max
Thanks you Max. I am happy you liked it. Best regards from Azerbaijan!
@@thesecretsoforchestration Hi Rovshan, I have checked out your large orchestration course and would like to ask what are your plans regarding the release of all the video lectures... at the moment there are some videos available but there are many to be released. Thanks and kind regards, Max
@@maxtofone thank you for the question! Of course, I add a new lecture weekly. This course is from my university lectures. The course plan is to add more lectures over the year. After each section of the lectures students will get the assignments.
@@thesecretsoforchestration Thanks for the kind reply! I am interested in your course but will pick it up when it is almost completed... All the very best and kind regards, Max
It would be great if the course were with Spanish subtitles. Many people who do not speak English would not hesitate to buy the course if it was translated. In my case I have to refuse to buy it because of the language.
I hope you take this suggestion into account.
Congratulations on your work.
Fj Junquero thanks for suggestion. Yes! I think, I should do it!
Спасибо большое за ваш огромный труд! Каждая лекция настолько объёмна, исчерпывающая, наглядная и без лишней воды!
As a drummer I desagree with your ADSR example. The attack of each drum is always short and immediate. What distinguishes snare and concert drum is the development of the sound. You can hear the hard attack both times in the samples. A sound engineer does not shorten the attack but rather dampens the sustain of the drum. The goal is to emphasize the attack. The example with the woodwinds also lags. The attack is adapted by the player to the musical situation. This is what distinguishes a sample from a human.
How do you get the books that you mention in the intro ? Because they seem very rare ! Where can I go to find this books ? And thank you for this great video !
Thank you. Send me private message via email: secretsoforchestration@gmail.com
What sound library are you using for the music examples?
Mainly used libraries are from Orchestral Tools Symphonic Series
Hi, I see that English Horn, Clarinet in Bb, Bassoon and other instruments are written different from what they are really sounding... ok... But this different written it is also in the full director partiture? I see that in the full director partiture the Viola is in tenor key ok and the contrabass it is written one octave above, ok ... but also the english horns, clarinet in Bb, Bassoon and the others? thanks
Of course, clarinets, English horn, piccolo, contrabassoon are transposing instruments in the woodwinds section
Why is it that in most orchestral acts there are a few woodwinds versus a large number of brass, even though brass has a stronger voice?! For example 2 flutes versus 4 trumpets!
The number of instruments does not always matter. Important point how to use them together and how to get the balance. 4 trumpets are used either in big size orchestras, where 3 or 4 flutes are used. Or in fanfare music, where the brassy sound is required. And most probably, flutes are used to add color to the trumpets, not to get an equal balance between them.
ASDR? I believe that the correct order here is: Attack - Sustain - Release - Decay
The Attack is the initiation of the sound. Then the note has a Sustain period in all instruments except percussion, which move immediately to Decay (there is no Release for most percussion.) Winds and Strings follow Sustain with Release, which is when they stop producing a sound. Decay is the final phase, which is the result of the reverberant acoustical properties of the space where the instrument was playing. Attack-Sustain-Release-Decay=ASRD
