Orchestrating a Woodwind Melody

In this video, I discuss orchestrating a melody or melodic material for the woodwind section of the orchestra. First I look at how to choose a woodwind instrument for a melody, and then I look at how to combine multiple woodwinds in unison and octaves for melodic writing. I've composed several short examples using sample libraries from Orchestral Tools. 0:00 Introduction 0:31 Woodwind Timbres and Registers 2:05 Choosing a Woodwind Instrument for a Melody 5:39 Example 1 (with Piano) 11:32 Example 2 (with Piano) 14:02 Example 3 (with Piano) 18:14 Combining Woodwinds 19:47 Combining Winds Example 1 21:50 Combining Winds Example 2 25:06 Combining Winds Example 3 27:07 Combining Winds Example 4 28:51 Combining Winds Example 5 29:42 Combining Winds Example 6 My Website: https://www.alexheppelmann.com contact: heppelmusic@gmail.com
