THIS IS A BLOODY MASTERCLASS!!! I've spent 2 hours on this video alone, pausing, trying, replaying. Thank you!

@jimrogers7425 Год назад

The descending runs are very reminiscent of what Carl Stalling did in Warner Brothers cartoon scores. It gave me pause to smile at how this technique evokes the speed of a chase. Great video! Thanks!!

@rmhmusic3621 Год назад

Carl Stalling? Wow. Did you know him, Jim? When I was a kid (6yrs) I took violin lessons with his wife. I think her name was Gladys?

@jimrogers7425 Год назад

@@rmhmusic3621... no I didn't, but I heard a lot of his compositions daily and also got CD 'The Carl Stalling Project' as well as the second one... just like watching the cartoons. It shows you just HOW IMPORTANT the music track was in the early WB cartoons!!

or the interminably annoying employment of the same by "composers" like danny elfman

@wildflute Год назад

A small note from an actual instrumentalist: choose the scales based on how we actually play and learn our fundamentals and not by whether it’s symmetrical on a keyboard. ‘Octatonic scale’ is a diminished scale and we do work on those but for gawdsake, unless it’s strictly necessary harmonically, use chromatic or the basic diatonic scale the piece is in. It does not enrich my life to have to flare my tendinitis over a twee scale decided by computer and not by understanding of how instrumentalists function. We are humans not robots. Make fast things predictable because most of the time we have one rehearsal at best to nail these things. I will add that the orchestration suggestions here are spot on. Thank you for listening to my TEDTalk!

@matthewlafountain3018 Год назад

I was thinking the same thing. Octatonics are much easier on strings (w open strings helping) but these runs of symmetrical half-whole at this tempo is hard on keyed wind instruments.

@Musicisair715 Год назад

Hey hey... We compose, you play. Shuuuuush. The true goal is nothing more than to make your fingers cry.

@wildflute Год назад

@@Musicisair715 It does seem that way a lot of the time!

@gkgyver Год назад

So, basically you learned a hard to play instrument and complain about it.

@wildflute Год назад

@@gkgyver Dude. It’s not hard to play per se, but all instruments require practice to get to a professional level. That being said, there are things that are idiomatic to each instrument in an orchestra and a professional composer will learn what these things are for each instrument. In my opinion they ought to go further than that and learn what it’s like to actually play in an orchestra and read music in this kind of ensemble. This is what made the greats great. Modernly, John Williams knows how to make each instrument sound it’s best and his shit is HAAAARD but never, ever ridiculously out of idiom for the instruments.

@anatomicallymodernhuman5175 Год назад

Super helpful to have it broken out like this! I absolutely love that last example. It took me right back to watching the old Warner Bros cartoons as a kid. One thing that many of your viewers may not be aware of is that you can’t just write octatonic for harp willy-nilly. They’re limited to seven pitch classes per octave. You can write it for two harps, omit one of the notes, or live with a virtual harp sound.

@lionmane3288 Год назад

absolutely love the orchestration in every one of these examples, great job

@andressarmiento384 Год назад

Great stuff, and the overall presentation was so good as well! Straight to the point, but with enough detail to get a lot of value out of this video

@grantmoon689 Год назад

@LG-bi1sr Год назад

Stuff like this are so valuable. It can bring so much energy to your piece and also function as a link between modes or keys or sections. Great work!
