  • In this video, I demonstrate how to take music written for piano and orchestrate it for both strings and woodwinds together. I've composed twelve short piano excerpts that I'll arrange in numerous ways, mostly using the Berlin Woodwinds Revive and Berlin Strings sample libraries from Orchestral Tools.

    Hope all of you enjoy this video! I'm in the process of moving to a new city, so unfortunately the next video will be a little delayed. I'm excited to take a look at the brass section next!

    Hi Alex. I've binged your content this whole week. Very good videos and learn a lot from this. I like that you a score presented alongside the piano roll, can see that you put a lot of time into this. Help me a lot due to my less trained reading skill.
    Thanks a lot!

    Your videos are just what I was looking for as I am a rookie professional orchestrator (adding orchestra to pop/rock performances). I felt very validated at 6:25 because I had that idea when you first showed the piano example haha.
    I have a question if you don't mind. I have been tasked with adding woodwinds to an existing show for rock band and string section (1 bass, 3 cello, 3 viola, 3 violin 2, 3 violin 1). I was thinking to just add something simple like 3 flutes and 3 oboes and skip the lower register woodwinds as they probably won't be heard. Does this sound about right to you?

    • @AlexHeppelmann
      @AlexHeppelmann  Před rokem

      Glad the videos are helpful! As to your question, without knowing how the music sounds I can't really say -- but chances are bassoons aren't going to be heard. High clarinets might be, along with flutes/piccolo, maybe oboes as well. Depends on so many things though!
