    VISUAL ORCHESTRATION #1

    SPECTROTONE COURSE

    Lecture 6
    Listening Guide
    To illustrate the points of this lesson Iʼve selected Jupiter from The Planets by Gustav Holst.
    Hopefully you have this in your music collection. If you don't, for your convenience I've
    researched and found multiple performances on YouTube you can choose from. If you don't
    have Jupiter from The Planets please look to purchase (or stream) a legal MP3 from iTunes,
    Amazon or similar music retailers.

    To get the MOST out of this lecture, listen to the performance before you watch Video Lecture 6.

    The Hans Zimmer Sound


    At the time Visual Orchestration #1 was produced, there was no single library on the market that
    could come close to the massive multi-layered strings used by Hans Zimmer in his film scores.
    But, in 2018 Hans teamed up with Spitfire Audio to release Hans Zimmer Strings, recorded
    with a whopping 344 musicians! Also available are Hans Zimmer Piano, Drums and

    Note About Professional Orchestration, Vol. 3


    In Video Lecture 6, Peter mentions having worked out detailed combinations of different
    orchestral sections in Professional Orchestration, Volume 3. This title was in the early stages of
    development when Peter unexpectedly passed away. Because of this, Professional
    Orchestration, Volume 3 was sadly never completed or published.
