(IB-) Music / Composition & Orchestration (Arrangement)
A Course - (Almost) Starting From Scratch
by Rolf Becker
Session 3
Dear Course Participant,
Based on my composition "Finally" (s. Session 2) you'll find below two examples of orchestration:
1. String Ensemble Addition
This example demonstrates the integration of a string section,
featuring first and second violins, violas, and cellos.
​
2. Wind Section Addition
Here, you’ll see how a trumpet, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, trombone,
and baritone saxophone enhance the orchestration.
To illustrate the range of these instruments,
I have included both a transposed score and a non-transposed score.
These examples highlight how different instrument families contribute to texture, color, and overall sound.
​

Happy Arranging!
See You
