I am interested in this topic, but although the price is greatly reduced in this flash sale, it is still above my "no brainer" threshold. Any one have advice or recommendation for someone interested in this area?

I was ready to pull the trigger when I discovered they have...no banjo!

and the Acoustic and MIDI Orchestration for the Contemporary Composer, older used version:

New version:

I am sure there are others as I bought these a few years ago.

Good luck.


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

I'm glad that I could help.

PS - I much prefer a book over an e-reader. YMMV

Have a look at the NorthernSounds forum for Principles of Orchestration and Jazz Arranging Online - by Prof. Chuck Israels.

Principles of Orchestration is basically the Rimsky Korsakov book, but with embedded examples. Jazz Arranging Online is also available as a book.

Unfortunately, these require Flash to play. The only browser that I've gotten them to work in is IE Edge. (Yes, I'm shocked too).

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Shocked and surprised. I used flash players in the past with no problems. That was years ago. Now I see they seem to have gone the way of the dinosaur. Can't get any of that flash content to play and ain't about to download and install every click bait link which claims to be the solution. But thanks for the input.

Dan,

Flash is an Adobe product and is available on the Adobe website at +++ this +++ link.

Deselect the two check boxes for MacAfee offers if you don't want them as that's the only click bait. The yellow button at the middle, bottom of the screen calls up the install manager.

Like you I've used Flash a long time ago and while it is a declining product it is still viable.

Dan, this may help. Garritan used to offer a free course in orchestration. It's now maintained here: http://northernsounds.com/forum/forumdisplay.php/77-Principles-of-Orchestration

Thanks guys, I seem to have the Flash Player up and running (not sure exactly what I did to make that happen). But only functioning in MSEdge, just as predicted above. I look forward to reviewing the material at the Northernsounds site.
