In this video, I discuss my composition Onward, as well as the orchestration and mockup. The piece was inspired by the music of Joe Hisaishi, specifically the scores to Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke. I'm using the VSL Synchron orchestral libraries for the mockup.

    Oh my goodness it's lovely! I'm trying to compose a piano concerto based on Beethoven early period Mozartish sound... piano was alright but orchestration scares me... this looks very helpful though so I'm gonna be watching it a few times. I absolutely love the style you wrote yours in!

    I didn't think vienna could be this powerful

    How do you compose for orchestras when your music is going to be rehearsed and performed? Do you use cubase here and play your midi keyboard to input the notes and rhythms into the daw and after all that is done, then you just write it all into sheet music on a separate program(ie. Sibelius, finale) ? I’m wondering how you put the music in your daw so accurately and then have exactly what you want later when it’s translated to sheet music.

    I typically work simultaneously in Dorico and Cubase, and often export midi from Dorico into Cubase. My Dorico score could then be ready for performance by live players if needed.
