#1johnwilliamsfan 0 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 If you're going to be needing a timpanist, I suggest you go with me. I hate to sound like I'm bragging (which I guess I am), but I've been playing percussion since I was 5 years old (now 28 years old). I have attended the Interlochen Arts Academy for 4 years of high school, I attended The Juilliard School and the Indiana University School of Music for college and am now a professional percussionist. During my years at Indiana University I was the timpanist for the IU Philharmonic (the school's top orchestra) and have performed some of the most well known pieces in the classical repertoire gamut. If you need a timpanist...I'm your guy! (or a percussionist, fot that matter!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought mellophone players were normally hornists who just switched for marching band.Ray Barnsburywell, in high school i performed on both. i cant play very well using mostly my top lip and my tone reflected more trumpet than french horn. when i went to college i decided to stick with the mellophone and only play during football season. i actually enjoy mellophone more than horn. im a little different than your normal horn player.

(Mainly) more strings are needed, as well as a couple of bassoons and 1 or 2 harps Children and women (and countertenors) would be very welcome to the chorus.

nightscape94 965 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 This is going to be hard to do unless all of us have some kind of way of recording this stuff and making a computer file out of it which could later be reedited with the new track. I guess one person would start by recording their part, then send it to the next person to overdub, and eventually get it around to everyone. This is going to be next to impossible to pull off right, though I'm sure something like this would get better the more we do it. I guess if you guys (and 1 gal) are really serious about doing this, I suppose we should pick a piece to put together. Preferrably something short and fun, like a piece from Home Alone or something akin to that. But I don't know, I guess we should make a list and vote. :?

The idea is nice, but it won't work this way since there's no clue on tempo etc. other than the previously recorded part. At least everyone has to read the score carefully (mainly regarding dynamics), and instead of a conductor a click track should be made with all tempo changes. If everybody records his part to this click track, at least there will be some temporal coherence.MSM - who can play and could record the violin 1 and violin 2 parts of Flight to Neverland.

Jacck 23 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 It would make more sense for there to be a person who is a "central mixer/editor" so-to-speak.. Someone who could gather all the recordings, and apply the proper acoustic effects to the recordings, and sort them all out in that sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 The question of tempo is a difficult one indeed. Honestly, if we used a click track based on a strict metronome setting then we'll lose a lot of flavor if we're unable to use rubato when applicable.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrchDork 0 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Well, we could all take a poll on a conductor, and have that person videotape themselves conducting some piece we agreed upon; then they would send the tape off to one of the performers who would record themselves playing to that tape. The tape would then be sent off to the next person, who would repeat the process. This way we wold have a set tempo and rubato... what do you guys think?-Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
