Taught by: Helen Noir
Audio Modeling is offering £15/$15/€15 off the SWAM Solo Brass / Trumpet plugin to all participants.
Aimed at electronic musicians wanting to begin to work with orchestral instruments and musicians, this workshop will begin a tour of the standard orchestral instruments by teaching the standard articulations for the trumpet, along with some of the best practices for writing for this instrument, and how to programme trumpet VSTs for realism
Trumpet Player: Sheila Maurice-Grey
