Hi Everyone, so a quick update about this series. When I made these videos I used a Pitch-Octave notation other than SPN (Scientific Pitch Notation, which is standard). The system I worked with has C4 as middle C, and resets octaves every "A" instead of every "C". I apologize if this is confusing. My orchestration video on transposing explains the system in greater detail. Other than this, the information is accurate and should be helpful! I'll be releasing an updated series on orchestration soon with more information (and that actually uses SPN). Thank you for your understanding and support! I'm grateful to have such a great community surrounding this youtube channel!
Common String Playing Techniques Sustained Notes - default bowing Stacatto - short notes Spiccato - bounce the bow on the string Tremolo - note bowed back and forth quickly Trill - quick alternating between two notes Pizzicato - pluck the string Bartok Pizzicato - snap the string against the neck (use sparingly) Bowing Positions Sul Tasto - over the fingerboard, airy and delicate Sul Ponticello - close to the bridge, scraping eerie sound Col Legno Battuto - strike strings with the wood Col Legno Tratto - bow strings with the wood, raspy sound, disliked by players Con Sordino - play with a mute Bowing (V) - up bow - weak beats and crescendos (n) - down bow - strong beats and decrescendos Slur - written over multple notes bowed in a single direction Harmonics (See also: Overtone Series) -performing a note in a way that a partial sounds more clearly than the fundamental pitch -most common is 4th partial -small black diamond in the node Natural Harmonic -by touching an open string on any partial -open circle above the note
Bro can give some more details of string arpegios, risers, rolls and more techniques... I love to compose with pop music and use those stuff I hear from classic but don't know tf it was done..I just wan't get some idea.you are doing great..thankS
thanks for the idea, Beth! String arpeggios are pretty simple and straightforward, they're just normal arpeggios played on strings. However, I recommend looking up a few videos that cover Ostinati, since I think that might be useful to you :) I want to tackle these topics in future videos, when I eventually re-vamp this series. So keep an eye out for that!
Thanks! That's the plan :) the next video should be the last for the string section . Afterwards I'll tackle the brass section, then the woodwinds, and finally the percussion section. Along the way I'll also share a few videos on different orchestrating topics like doubling instruments. The very last video will probably be a break down of my own approach to actually orchestrating a piece
@@TableTopComposer Great! I can't wait for the percussion series. I'm a self taught musician, so there's a lot of deep valleys and tall mountains in my knowledge landscape (as well as some pits here and there). I struggle when trying to create arrangements because I can't get away from the feel of a strong rhythm section. Although I'm not a classical composer (miles away yet) I think that rhythms is always more subtle and ambiguous in classical because of the lack of a "modern-like beat". Well, sorry for the broken English and thanks for the attention and content. Keep going!!!

Common String Playing Techniques
Sustained Notes - default bowing
Stacatto - short notes
Spiccato - bounce the bow on the string
Tremolo - note bowed back and forth quickly
Trill - quick alternating between two notes
Pizzicato - pluck the string
Bartok Pizzicato - snap the string against the neck (use sparingly)
Bowing Positions
Sul Tasto - over the fingerboard, airy and delicate
Sul Ponticello - close to the bridge, scraping eerie sound
Col Legno Battuto - strike strings with the wood
Col Legno Tratto - bow strings with the wood, raspy sound, disliked by players
Con Sordino - play with a mute
Bowing
(V) - up bow - weak beats and crescendos
(n) - down bow - strong beats and decrescendos
Slur - written over multple notes bowed in a single direction
Harmonics
(See also: Overtone Series)
-performing a note in a way that a partial sounds more clearly than the fundamental pitch
-most common is 4th partial
-small black diamond in the node
Natural Harmonic
-by touching an open string on any partial
-open circle above the note
Great videos, really helpful!
Great videos and very, very good Italian pronunciation!

@@TableTopComposer 🐐😁👌
Really cool! Would you do a video with a similar approach to the brass/wind sections? Watching all your videos (;
