Looking to move from digital music making to working with orchestral arrangements?
In this first We Move session, Helen Noir will walk us through how using orchestral elements with electronic production techniques can enrich your practice as a music creator. This would be of value to any electronic musician wanting to work with orchestral musicians or VSTs, and of particular interest to those interested in writing for film or theatre.
This event is for those interested in writing or arranging music of real musicians, and in moving from working in DAWs/ electronic music to arranging music for orchestras and real musicians.
IRL Venue: The Rattle, Tobacco Dock, Wapping, London
