[JanooProductions]

Very good!! i like it!

[MegaBigz09]

[WanderingFilms]

@MegaBigz09 dude, really? it's an arrangment for string ensemble and percussion.......

[MegaBigz09]

@WanderingFilms Can u at least get me molususs which it the dark knight theme for trumpet

[GRonnoc]

@MegaBigz09 I'm sorry I don't just magically have trumpet music for stuff...they sell trumpet books with music from movies in them - you might be able to buy a batman book for trumpet somewhere.

[MegaBigz09]

@WanderingFilms I live in Nigeria is there any website

[brokensilence51]

Thanks alot... I'm working on getting a program called Notion 3, dunno if u ever heard of it but I downloaded the trial and it's reeli nice. It has VST support as well, if u want, check out the sound quality of the instrument playback on my channel (and that's just the midi instruments)

[brokensilence51]

Hey, I love this arrangment, but I was wondering can you please clarify something for me? I'm new to music scoring and I know about programs such as sibelius and finale and that they can playback the audio, but the playback sounds too midi. What did you mean by you made the audio in garageband? Did you physically record each part?

[GRonnoc]

@brokensilence51 what I mean is that since the playback on finale isn't very good/expressive, I exported a midi, and opened it in garageband to use with software instruments in that program, and I created a separate recording to lay over this video of finale.

[87linceed]

@brokensilence51 what you want is a program like cubase or prottols, and inside that you are going to run vst´s like ewql or vienna strings, dont waste your money on finale, thats an annotation program

[125guitarmaster]

The person who disliked this must be the joker...

[lo888a]

This is kind of music i really like, as a cellist there is something for me to do! And also for the basses :-D

Not the same notes over and over again and no solo.

[TheStupidityBuster]

wats a good tip for playing the main viola part

ITS FRIGGIN DIFFICULT

[GRonnoc]

@TheStupidityBuster can't really give you a good tip honestly. For starters I don't play string instruments....I play tuba. and this was actually never performed anywhere, only my other arrangement was performed.

[cossheisnmzenna]

this is amazing...

[CMTEcaio1]

you thing you can make a sheet for complete that your's ? i thing will be great whit your talent

that one you do is great

[Mrosen7542]

Why is he running dad? Because we have to chase him. He didn't do anything wrong. Because he's the hero Gotham deserves but not the one it needs right now. So we'll chase him. Because he can take it. Because he's not a hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight.

[CMTEcaio1]

briliant muito bom very good

[chatchick2]

WHY SO AWESOME?

[APrognosticator]

Brilliant!!!!

thanks for the PDF

[Sensitive78]

Greatest musical composition, for THE greatest ending in a movie...EVER!

[Brenden5826]

I can't think of what this is from but it sounds so familiar

Is the the newer batman movie(dark knight, sounds like it)

[GRonnoc]

@Brenden5826 Did you read the title of this video?

[tetrachordfetuses]

Score it for woodwinds and brass as well. It will be even more awesome adding the different colors.

[davisonincmusic]

VERY COOL ARRANGEMENT! Could you send me the .mus file for Finale? My Orchestra director likes this arrangement a lot! :) He wants to preform it, but the spacing for the parts in the link was too much, so he wants to edit the spacing, so that we can print and play it! (paper costs sooo much!)

I'll put up a video of the performance, so that you can hear it! My email is: davison.gsmst@gmail.com

Thanks! Keep up the excellent work! :)

[GRonnoc]

@davisonincmusic are you sure you want THIS song....not my other (better) Dark knight arrangement that has bits of Harvey Dent, and other songs in it? i'd HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend that one over this one.

[davisonincmusic]

@GRonnoc Me and my Director liked this version the most! (the class went crazy over it)

[funnymanseven]

@GRonnoc may I also receive a mus. file of this song please

Great work btw, and by great i mean EPIC

[ViolaGoddess2014]

O mg... i played along!!!! Epicness!!!!

[allicsirpShow]

@ViolaGoddess2014 me 2!!

[shooter0078]

Nice Work!

[StalacticPro]

Wooow Almost the same!

[PizzaPayYan101]

whats the vst you used ?

[mori1119]

great!

[Marcatolegato]

your arrangment are missing something - there should be two violins for violin 2 - 2 for violin 2 - 2 viola - 4 celloes and 2 basses ;)

[soontobecomposer]

How did you add the three slanted lines above the whole notes?? I use Finale Allegro, so that may change the situation. I would appreciate it if you could help me.

[UchihaEriza]

Just incredible! So skillful. Sounds so close to the original. I bet it will be even more stunning when it's performed live!

[RyuBlade1980]

Great!

[peppersax]

Again, the genius of Bernard Herrmann pops up (I know he didn't score this).

[TheMOHfanatic]

hey GRonnoc, is it possible i could download a PDF of this somewhere?

[lonely9wonderer]

i love this song!!!! i remember that i played something like this in band camp but it was louder and faster and no violinist was in it

[MeridiusReloaded]

Man, that's beautiful!

[edwin1893]

can u arrange the Divenire from Ludovico Einaudi..........i was hoping to get the string part ..plz help

[schilke237]

wow that was outstanding, i am a trumpet player i usually hate sitting through orchestra unless i get to play something... that one had me glued to me seat, definately worth the time, you are only in high school... is there anyway you could send me that if i gave you my email?

[GRonnoc]

OR you can just download this off the link in the description.

[schilke237]

nice hey thanks a ton, hey out of curiosity what parts were in the percussion

[GRonnoc]

In the description as well...

[whstrompwns]

@GRonnoc can you put this up as a .mus file so that I can transpose your work to fit the instrumentation that I would like to play this with. (I have finale and would like to try this out)

thank you

[guanxuchong]

I'm gona get the kids to do this! Thank you so much! You are awesome!

[KamenRyderBlackRX]

Amazing !!!

[redruckus81]

this is incredible!!!! im a big fanand im looking for a certain score, you are obviously well versed in this area. . . wondering if you could answer a couple

?s

[iMeta4]

Too bad this program is not free. However it is not a bad thing that this program is cheap. :)

[GRonnoc]

It WAS free, at the time I got the program. The stopped that as of the latest version.

[iMeta4]

Blast. And which version is this?

[KyuubinoKaiju]

what program is this?

[GRonnoc]

Finale Notepad, it's a music notation program.

[PutrescentSoul]

OMg your schoo will be doing this? ugh! i'm so jealous!!!

[grendun]

Very nice work man!

Im a student studying film scoring at Berklee and I have to say I think you would fit in great here. Hans Zimmer is one of my favorite composers as well. Your on the right track for sure. If you want, take a listen to some of my videos too. Keep up the good work!

[liquidbeats]

Hammer, i like it :)

[apolllos7]

All with the utmost respect, theres no denying your musical ears are godly.

[apolllos7]

Once again incredible. I don't mean to be a noob but your movie soundtracks are way more impressive and cool than your pokemon and video game material, i know that'll probly offend you cause you love pokemon and I admit the pokemon music is talented but if you want "most" adults to take you seriously and be impressed by you this is the kinda stuff you should do, I mean you can do alot more cheerfull stuff than this but the pokemon stuffs only gonna get you credit with the Japs. No offence

[MrJohnnywonny]

@apolllos7 My only criticism is that the sharing of motivic material is too abrupt. The timbral transitions could be smoother by carrying a quarter note into the next bar, for example.

[apolllos7]

@MrJohnnywonny I agree. It's easy to criticize but hard to do haha I just noticed that it would definitely sound better and smoother, I had thought that was just a flaw in the vst finale instruments but now that you mention it the abruptness seems to happen when the bars are switched. Forgive me if I'm not making sense, I stopped music completely for the past two years. I'm just getting back into the swing of things again.

[bomberboy99]

Wow, I bet you guys will receive a standing ovation when you play this. Good luck ^-^

[CDogBeanProduction]

Thats amazing you'll become a famous composer one day

[ShinyShiranai]

dude, now that was an amazing composition..... now i know why i subbed to you ^_^

[Tomba871]

Just Wow, it kept sending chills through spine. Instant 5/5 and favorite.

[juggernoud1]

AMAZING!! GOOSEBUMPS all over my body! I can't believe how great it SOUNDS!! This arrangement is OUTSTANDING! This cannot be described in words! Better then fenominal!!! 100 stars!!!

[LunaSaint]

[lime2205]

[GRonnoc]

[rejoycement]

Holy JESUS

[Ilumiknight]

Very amazing! I'm seriously impressed, that was done really well!

[psieth]
