Description

The lofty goal of every arranger is to take notes written on paper and transform them into live music – a message from the arranger to the listener. In doing so, the arranger must be an orchestrator since his music must be written for the orchestra at hand, and a composer in the areas where he can be inventive. Both are demanding, satisfying, partly analytical and partly emotional activities. They require the same skills, but represent different problems with different degrees of latitude. I've done plenty of both, and have always been as proud of a good arrangement as a good composition. There were times when I thought arranging was harder.
