What is an orchestra?
An orchestra is a large group of musicians who play together to create powerful and dynamic music. It’s typically made up of four different sections: strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion, each adding its own color and character. The conductor leads the group by guiding tempo, balance and expression so every instrument works in harmony.
What is an articulation?
An articulation is the way a note is played or expressed, shaping its character and emotion. It can make the same note sound smooth, sharp, bold or even delicate. Here are some of the main articulations that are included in SSO Discover:
