Beowolf

OK, I have no idea what I am supposed to do with this. Any hints? It looks like the mp3 might be the same as the score, but I wanted to check.

Weird... I don't particularly like the music, and it will be very difficult to do, especially the vocal parts and electric guitar (I think that's what it was).

I haven't tried reading the score yet, but my advice, for what it's worth, would be for you to simply create the instruments you see on the divided score document in Logic or Sibelius, and play what's there on the score before trying to make it sound like the MP3.

This cue seems to involve greater precision in writing the parts as there are so many, and it is so percussion-oriented. Hope this helps. (I may not venture into this at all this week.)

The MP3 is actually NOT the same as the score. Which is no help.

One thing to keep in mind is that every musical line is covered, usually, by at least 4 other players. So it looks like a lot of music, but it's actually very simple (and boring) music spread throughout the orchestra.

Good luck . . . .
