The Orchetrated version of Winter Wrap Up is just awesome. I can imagine a high class dude relaxing in big mansion, drinking the most expensive bottle of whine, while listening to it being played in live. Just awesome.
I've never really liked the orchestrated versions of these songs. It would probably be much better and much more lively if an actual orchestra covered the music. They have just always seemed a little bland and plasticy to me.
No offense meant towards Neonbrony though, some people do like this stuff and you should keep it up.
I'll work on making a copy of the score sometime soon, but as far as it goes I don't have anything concrete except what's in my composing program. Plus that still leaves the parts untranslated into bass clef and such.
But I'll get to it eventually. I'll mostly likely have it done before winter, though :P
There's something bugging me about the Winter Wrap Up mix. Maybe it's just my speakers, but I don't hear a lot of "bottom" to the orchestration. I think it could use a stronger bass line.
It's probably my headphones, but the bass is definitely there. Actually, if I tried making the lower parts any louder, the audio would've started clipping.
I too would love to hear a live orchestra tackle this. The rythm sounds wobbly and the notes seem to be stepping on top of each other. I sent in a track to the Winter Wrap Up sing-along brony (who may still be working on stitching them together) so I realize how difficult a piece of music this is to keep up with.

ReplyDeleteI think I'll print out the score and hand it over to my school's orchestra director for next year's winter concert.
That orchestrated version of Winter Wrap Up made my life.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to replay the crap out of that on my Ipod. I absolutely love it.
That second one could have been better... If only scoot could sing...
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the orchestration of WWU! I'm very impressed! I'd love to get a copy of the score for me and some of my band friends.
ReplyDeleteThe second one was good, but Scoot's voice is... yeah... not her gift...
First vid was meh. Midi keyboard orchestras are lame.
ReplyDeleteSecond vid was pretty lulzy, I wonder how that guy figured out that combo?
@Anonymous It's actually not Midi sounds used-- these soundfonts are of a much higher sample quality, and are much more versatile to boot.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should just get my school's orchestra to play it, just to seal the deal?

ReplyDeleteMy ultimate goal is to get my high school orchestra to play it live sometime. In the meantime, this will have to do!
I know they'll never be able to replace the original songs, but it gives me something to do and keeps me in the habit of making music.

ReplyDeleteI would love to get a copy of the score. I would give it to my high school orchestra as well. And I'm not even in high school.
Is there anyway i could get a copy?

The 2nd video sounds like a true Crusade!
ReplyDeleteI love it!

ReplyDeleteI second this. My orchestra would love doing this for our Winter Concert.
