Orchestration Techniques: Unison and Octave Doublings of the Melody

Featured Replies

In this video, we explore how to use unison and octave doublings when orchestrating a melody.

You will learn how doubling a melody with different orchestral instruments can change its color, strength, character, and expression.

We will explore different combinations of strings, woodwinds, and brass, and examine how instruments can be combined in unison and at the octave to create a richer, more powerful, and balanced orchestral sound.
