In this video I come clean about some of the horrendous orchestration mistakes I made on my 20+ year journey to understand how to write for orchestral instruments. It's never going to be pain-free but hopefully you can learn something from my mistakes.
Mistakes:
0:37 Harmonies that sound good on the piano don’t always sound good on other instruments.
3:23 High notes sound high even on low instruments.
4:34 Unintended comedy
5:52 Unison string doublings, especially for medium paced tunes.
7:01 Funky rhythms and how to write them for classical players.
Adam Neely's video "How and why classical musicians feel rhythm differently " which I mention in mistake number 5.
