Uncover the scoring techniques used by top film composers... "I would highly recommend this book to any student or working professional wishing to learn or expand their knowledge of orchestration. If you intend to work professionally the skills imparted by the studies presented here will be of enormous benefit and will give you a professional advantage for your entire career." – BioShock composer Garry Schyman
For the very first time the hidden doors on the techniques you've been hearing in the scores of John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith and others for years, are, at last, finally open.
Professional Orchestration is loaded with references from 35 works including Holst's The Planets, Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite and Dukas' Sorcerer´s Apprentice in a large full page/full score format (that you can MIDI mock-up at your leisure). 63 techniques are referenced meticulously in the low, medium, high and very high registers which are matched to the optional MP3 audio package where excerpts are heard in the musical context of the scores.
