(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.

​

Finally (Strings)

Happy Arranging!
See You
