EVCRT 213 - Advanced Orchestration

Jae Lee
In this course, students will continue to enhance the knowledge they acquired in the Orchestration class. Lectures will focus on the nuances of scoring for chamber orchestra and full orchestra, with guest musicians and speakers joining to discuss a variety of topics, including professional-level score/part preparation; scoring for soloist with orchestra (both instrumental and vocal); orchestration vs. arranging; and orchestration for concert band. This is a yearlong course. Students may join in either fall or spring; however, spring placements are contingent on midyear vacancies. Prerequisites: Orchestration (or equivalent) and familiarity with music notation software, such as Finale or Sibelius. Placement application required unless pre-approved to enroll.

The class will run for 13 sessions, the final session will be the recital day on December 15 in room 309.
