Nice job with my short piece, Alex. Some very interesting orchestration choices. I'll pull it into Cubase where I can study it and break it down. My original orchestration was much simpler, and I wanted to see how someone more knowledgeable than me might approach this. Hopefully more patrons will send you melodies to work with.
Thanks so much for sending this one, Michael. I really enjoyed working with the melody and chords. Hope you enjoyed the video!
These "Orchestrating a Melody" videos are incredibly helpful to novice orchestrators. On other channels, I rarely see such a detailed description of how & why orchestration decisions are made. I hope the "Orchestrating a Melody" series becomes a regular part of your superb channel.
Thanks so much! I'll definitely be making more of these!
Just noticed that this was video #100 on my channel!
Wow, that's amazing Alex! This means I have watched a 100 of your videos and have very much appreciated each one ❤
You have done such a great job with the orchestrations, and really liked how you expanded the piece.
Thanks, Mark!

I'm still having difficulties orchestrating a 32 bar composition - if you're up for it, I can send the music for you to take a look. Curious how you'd approach it. Simple great melody. Video game town theme-esque!
excelent ¡¡¡
Great job Alex... What libraries have you use for this orchestration? Kind regards and blessings, Max
Thanks, Max. Berlin Muted Strings, Berlin Winds, and horns from Berlin Brass
@@AlexHeppelmann Thanks Alex for the kind reply... Those Berlin instruments sound very nice, I particularly liked the woods.
What software do you for musical notation?
