5:49 if you're writing one part to be played by several winds, such as a clarinet part in a concert band, marking "stagger breathing" is not only not sloppy or lazy, it's standard.
As a lowbrow composer, the most important concept that I take, in general, from this fine tutorial, is to trust your ears - and samples as is the case - experiment with your orchestration, phrasing, dynamics, and harmonic coloring until some magic happens. Thanks so much for the details.
As a player, conductor and composer, I disagree that stagger breathing is lazy and shouldn't be used. Stagger breathing allows the ensemble to balance and match much better than the composer can direct. The example at 4.10 of 2 horns dovetailing a long note could lead to a dynamic change as horn 2 enters. Allowing the players to decide where to breathe (if at all!) can smooth the changeover considerably.
This is so much more than what you can find in so many textbooks. Thank you!
24 minutes VERY well spent. Many thanks!
Excellent video.
this channel is a goldmine

Richard Strauss often writes very long notes for wind or brass players without breaks in the ties
Thanks a lot
Blurring is a fascinating but probably one of the most complicated to apply at it's best..
Out of curiosity: What is the piece being played at Tip #7? (18:08)
Turandot nessun dorma
I'm not exactly understanding what you mean by fake cadences, perhaps false cadence or deceptive cadence or even half?
Any cadence which doesn't resolve to the tonic.
@@TheClassicalSauce I figured that. Otherwise I'd still be asking the same question to this day.
It is not Sfmuato but, Sfumato, the Paint technique.
It is not Roy Lopez but, Ruy Lopez, the Spanish Chess Player.

SORRY - but it's *RUY LOPEZ* not Roy Lopez♥
Oops sorry
@@michaelbarrymusic669 It's OK - it just jumped out at me :)
Just those cadences alone would have made it worth watching.
Erratum: Although not relevant, the famous chess opening is called Ruy Lopez, instead of Roy Lopez haha
Bohemian rhapsody uses pyramiding.

Anyone?
