UPDATE: I delisted this video a year or so ago because I felt I had outgrown the knowledge/quality presented in the video but I'm making it public again just for future reference. (also I took it down because david bruce later made a much better video on the same topic using the same piece, CHECK IT OUT: czcams.com/video/fQAE4uBxgR0/video.html&ab_channel=DavidBruceComposer )

i have an assignment for uni to orchestrat Medtner's Op 38 No 1 hahaha, this has been super helpful, thank you!

Thank you for this video. Orchestration has been one of the giants I really can't figure out how to approach because of how detailed it can be but this really just offered me some more insight. Also, that Jacob's school of music website is so clutch. Thank you.
Very respectable Shostakovich picture. I kinda want one now.
