[Udemy 100% Free]-Orchestration Mini-Course: The String Section

Description Let's face it: most string parts suck. When it comes to writing for strings, most composers, producers, and songwriters just copy & paste their chord sequence from the piano, join the notes together, stick it on an "Orchestral Strings" patch and call it a string part. They're too scared to try anything else. But it doesn't have to be that way! What if you could write amazing string parts? And what if I told you that you don't have to follow a rulebook? Orchestrating for strings doesn't mean that you need a PhD in music theory. It simply means that you need to learn how to better use your ears. You can learn to improve your string parts, simply by learning: The types and ranges of each string instrument The articulations and techniques that you can use Who's My Teacher? I'm Jonny Armandary, film composer and founder of soundtrack.academy. I've written hundreds of pieces with string sections - some on virtual instruments, some for real orchestras.

We start by learning about the string section: How the instruments are built & played What makes a string instrument sound the way it does The range & timbre of each instrument Where the instruments sit in a standard layout Then we look at the sounds the instruments can create (and as a special treat, I have a violinist performing each technique): Dynamics Articulations Bowing techniques Extended & advanced techniques Enrol now, and I’ll see you in the course!
