Topic: A silly orchestral arranging project I've only just started!

I've always had an interest in arranging a piece of music for a different style/different timbres... And I've uploaded a couple of projects that I've made on Logic Pro!

The first is a very short, allegro piece for all you gamers - it's the introduction to Pokemon Yellow arranged for string quartet. I'm working on some other themes from these games at the moment http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq8EpG4tQUY

The second is for full orchestra! In Music Technology AS, I had to sequence the song Colourless Colour by La Roux. Not fun. But now that it's finished I thought I should have some fun with it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41Dq8csNQys


If there's one thing I know I can do well it's writing for guitar so I'll put up some guitar arrangements up soon, as well as original compositions (I'll upload my Music AS composition soon).

I'd love your suggestions! Let me know of a song or piece of music otherwise and what instrument set-up you think would work.


Have a lovely day smile

Nice job William... I'm not sure all what this entails that you've done, but it if I'm wrapping my head around this correctly, it was a LOT of darn work!  Do we have the next Bach in our midst?  smile  Keep the music alive sir!

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.

Thanks for the kind words!

Nobody will ever compare to Bach. I'd gladly be the next Segovia, though! lol
