This orchestral wind course takes an in-depth look at the individual members of the clarinet, bassoon and saxophone families.

This course will teach you everything an orchestrator needs to know about these instruments, including their range, technique, and the role they play in the orchestra. The course begins with a complete look at the clarinet family, including the A and B-flat clarinets, the bass clarinet, the E-flat clarinet, the bass horn and the contrabass clarinet. Next, Thomas takes a detailed look at an occasional (but very significant) addition to the wind section: the saxophones.

Learn how to write for orchestra from an award-winning composer whose music has been performed by orchestras across the U.S. The course is divided into two parts: part 1 is on Instrumentation and part 2 is on Orchestration. Instrumentation is an important and necessary first step since you cannot write for orchestra if you don’t know about the individual instruments of the orchestra. In part 1 you will learn how each instrument is constructed, how they produce sound, how they are properly notated, their playing and sounding ranges, register characteristics, dynamic capabilities and common playing techniques. In part 2 you will learn basic concepts for writing for orchestra, including how to create and effectively use different timbres and textures, the best methods for scoring chords, the roles each instrument and section play within the whole, how to properly prepare a score and parts, and how to proof before publishing. The course concludes with an entire section of helpful orchestration tips and techniques. There are also a number of useful reference charts attached as .pdf files.
