Hey there, I recently had the absolute pleasure of arranging 5 Jacques Brel songs for vocalist and orchestra. Naomi Ferguson is a very expressive performer supported beautifully by the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra. Check it out here: https://youtu.be/MSsrvFr46oI?si=XnZD7...

If you've been thinking about joining the Arranging Studio with ‪@ToshiClinchProductions‬ and I now is a great time! Over the next few months we're looking at examples from Frank Sinatra and the amazing arrangers he worked with. And we're planning the classes and workshops so that you'll have a completed arrangement by the end of it.

June: Tailoring ensemble parts to fit around a melody (vocal or instrumentalist)
July: Key instrumental moments in an arrangement (shout, vamps, interludes etc.)
August: How to develop your idea in an exciting way.
September: Writing a conclusion/ending.

I'm having some busy times at the moment, so there is a bit of delay in the next video. But there are some cool videos coming up....An interview with a special guest, some classical music in a Gil style and some funk horns!

New vid out! I thought the Success Kid meme was a good image for how I felt when I paired some of these major triads together. 😂

Hi all. An original composition of mine 'Delta Works' has just been released on my channel in collaboration with ‪@SOUNZ_nz‬ . SOUNZ are an amazing organization and team who promote NZ music throughout the world. They kindly edited and captured this video of our live concert in the Great Hall Arts Centre, Christchurch. This piece features ‪@GwynReynolds‬ on the alto sax and features lots of major triads shifting into all sorts of fun places. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yjja...
