Pop Medley: OutKast, Maroon 5, Usher - Woodwind Quintet
Uploaded by: NewEdit617
Video Description:
This is a medley of current pop songs I arranged for woodwind quintet (flute, oboe, B flat clarinet, French horn, and bassoon). This was a *lot* of fun to arrange!
I selected four songs:
OutKast - Hey Ya
Gnarls Barkley - Crazy
Maroon 5 - Makes Me Wonder
Usher - Yeah
I listened to these many times, transcribed the main themes, added backgrounds and harmonies, arranged them for five instruments, and developed them in to a medley.
Although I do not as yet have a quintet with which to perform / record this, I hope that the electronic instruments will provide a good representation of what the piece is supposed to sound like. The instrument parts are represented by colored circles as follows:
flute - orange
oboe - green
clarinet - blue
French horn - purple
bassoon - pink
THE SHEET MUSIC IS NOW UP! on a temporary (and not-so-good-looking) website that I will make much better this summer. http://newedit617.googlepages.com/compositions

I agree about some of the parts being a bit unreasonable to play. I'm not too familiar with the range of the French horn and did make that part too high... the nice thing about pop music is that players are a bit more free to improvise, luckily!
Please let me know if you play the Christmas piece, and happy quinteting!
By the way, what programs do you use to create these videos? I know you use Music Animation Machine, but what else? Music notation, screen capture software...
