Does the French horn melody reminds you of an existent piece? I feel the melody is familiar.

Edit: Next time I should post these clips in my own thread...

It doesn't remind me of anything that immediately come to mind.

Question: I'm working on an arrangement for my orchestration/arranging class. Given the standard instruments of today's orchestra, what would be a great way to mimic a choir singing long notes like "Ooo?"

That depends. I really like the effect John Rutter uses in his "Gloria" with the sort of chorale-like texture he uses in the brass parts of the second movement. Maybe you could try something like that?

Does the music is constant in audiobooks? Or is used just sporadically? The audiobook is for children and is a verbal narration with illustrations.

Anyone got any suggestions on what can be done to make a trombone sound like a bassoon?

...I'm thinking cup mute.

Yes this is relevant.

Maybe you could also try playing into a stand, like INTO a stand.

We should do something for Christmas, related to music/composition of course. Any ideas?

deathraider · November 20th, 2009, 05:00 am

Are you going to have time to participate?

Mazeppa · November 21st, 2009, 02:47 pm

Go for it. If you make it, they will come.

I think that somebody here should compose the next best Christmas song, one that shall be a classic for the ages!

Nyu001 · December 8th, 2009, 01:27 am

Let's do something for Christmas!

I love how Al keeps popping up telling us things he thinks we should do, and then disappears again for a while...lol

It's kind of late to organize a christmas contest though...hmmm

...but I do like the idea.

I get all these ideas but I can never follow through (actually I don't disappear, I visit here fairly often, I just don't always have anything to say).

Uhhhh.. How can i write down the notes i have so far? I can read sheet music, but goin to a cybercoffe to print a blank sheet paper, and then writing it down seems LIKE ALOT OF PAIN, besides i don't have confidence in my writing..

I have overture but i can't the hang of it, and it;s still very tiring to write it down..

Isn't there any other way? like downloading a program and just connect it with the midi cable and play and it will automatically make a sheet or something?

thanks in advance guys
