    If I've learned one thing by making this video it's that I really REALLY should stop hitting my space bar so hard! :) Thank you all for all the great comments, suggestions and questions! Episode two of this series is dropping tomorrow! 5/20/20

      It must be a piano player thing I’m on my 3rd wireless Mac keyboard in 2 years they are thin and don’t require much force but I can’t help it I might switch to an off name compatible to save bread I do it subconsciously but I’m glad I’m not the only one

    Hi Gav,
    I am a self-taught orchestral music enthusiast from China because I really enjoy the energy that orchestral music conveys. However, since I am an amateur without professional training, I really need a lot of video tutorials like yours to guide my learning. I have taught myself music theory and am now studying harmony. Although it is not easy, I find it very enjoyable. I have bypassed the internet restrictions to access UA-cam and found your video tutorials, which have been very beneficial. I have learned a lot from your videos.
    I am very excited and really appreciate that you take the time to create such free tutorials. I am 34 years old and do not have a stable job. Currently, I am learning to be a welder. I spend my spare time learning orchestral composition. I hope that one day, when I have a stable job and income, I can make some donations to support you (like paying tuition). I hope to have more communication with you. I wonder if you would be willing to do so. I hope you can reply and give me your contact information.
    Thank you again. As a Chinese person, I would like to bless you in the Chinese way: May God and Buddha bless you with peace and health.

      Music is not in the notes but the silence in between.
      Don't try to write so much harmonies and etc. Maybe try writing less and simple as you can.

    • @timkirchhof747

      @@wolfie8748 Music is the notes. Silence and space is a part of how the notes relate to each other. Such an annoying phrase. (citation: professional jazz musician and composer; me)

  • @oddfellow8366
    @oddfellow8366 Рік тому

    My problem has always been that I think too much... I overthink everything, I forget to make it about the love for music and think too much about the technicalities, then the fun get's drained out of it. This video reminded me to take it one step at a time. Start small, finish a small piece and put it out there already! It'll never be perfect, but nothing will get done if I don't accept the process as is and learn to put something mediocre out there, that's the only way I'll improve. Subscribed.

    That was awesome! I have combined orchestral elements to my music (I play metal), but it has always been such a huge task that it required a different inspiration from me, a state of spirit that I was not always able to achieve easily. But the way you demonstrated, it became easier! Excellent job!

    as i use YT to learn new subjects ....i am amazed at how much there is to learn. I thought i was doing good when i learned music theory early in life. somebody would have told me I would use sound effects to create an orchestra compliation. i would have called them a liar!
    good job.

    Wow! I am sitting at my chair, long long past bedtime and I can't put this down. That shows how good this is. What started out as a project to take a 10min chamber score of Star Trek to a concert band has made my search wondering how I am supposed to do that? Although i do play horn, I am not a composer or arranger, but will figure out how this works. This was an excellent tutorial that has given me confidence in going ahead with it. SUBSRCIBED AND LIKED! HUGELY. Dave

    A good way to gauge the quality of the content of a video is: the viewers don't feel that time is dragging; in other words, this video is so good that 13 minutes (plus) went by so fast.
    I take it that the 20 down votes (as at mid May 2020) are by people selling orchestral contents!
    Another sub added to your growing list.
