Included In the Writing For Strings – Complete Edition Course:

• The Spectrotone Instrumental Tone Color Chart – PDF;
• 28 Lessons in PDF format with 4-color graphics (approx. 140 pages);
• Approx. 6.98 hours of supporting video lectures (.mov format for Mac and PC) matching key lessons;
• String Positions PDF Booklet in 4-color graphics for Violin, Viola, Cello and Bass;
• 19 PDF study scores of public domain classical works (approx. 470 pages);
• Live student recordings of string ranges for violin, viola, cello, and bass;
• Links to YouTube video performances of most of the examples you’ll be studying to hear and visualize string bowings (updated roughly once a year to keep links current).

You’ll need:

• To ideally budget 6-8 hours for study per week, but you can set your own pace;
• To preferably have sequencing or notation software with string samples to record your work;
• To be able to read music notation (if you’re not strong in reading music you can still pick up a lot from reading/listening to the lessons and studying the YouTube performances).

About Writing For Strings
Writing For Strings is an entry-level, one semester length course. It’s designed as the second semester following the standard one semester orchestration course, which is usually given in the senior year of college. As Writing For Strings is designed to be a second semester collegiate course, the more you can read music the more you’ll get out of it.

Because this is a self study course you can work through the lessons at your own pace. Be prepared to do a lot of practical work! You can use any string sample library you have, or whatever strings are included in your sequencing or notation software.
