If you know some symphonic/orchestral music you like from rock/metal or any other genre, symphonies, soundtracks feel free to join in and share.
My contribution this week is something longer, the full performance of The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim 10th anniversary concert by the London Symphony Orchestra & London Voices from 2021 🤩
Miss Admiral Gordon’s Strathspey (William Marshall ) is a 250 yr. old strathspey dance tune. Named for the Strathspey region of Scotland, the strathspey dance is a popular form of country dance, usually in 4/4 time and slower than a reel or jig. It is characterized by the use of the “Scots Snap" rhythm — a sixteenth note followed by a dotted eighth note, or in reverse order.
This piece is meant to be a musical representation of a panic attack.
On the advice of my therapist, I wrote a piece of music as a means of catharsis. It was for personal events that happened in my life a few years back.
Thankfully I haven't had a panic attack in months. I'm just not that stressed anymore.
I'm very thankful to be able to use music to process things. And I'm very grateful to my therapist who helped me to discover that music could be used in this way.
I'd like to invite you to nominate your favourite pieces of classical music. For example: Pachelbel - Canon, Ravel - Bolero, Vivaldi - Spring. If there's enough interest I'll run a poll.
My sister has 1 ticket for the Final Fantasy distant worlds San Francisco performance June 1 she would like to sell as she cant make it. It's really close to the orchestra. She bought it for $149 and the event is sold out!
My wife is in a small #orchestra (NULCO: Newcastle-under-Lyme Community Orchestra) and they have a chance to get a grant which would make a huge difference for them. Please help by voting, and by sharing the link.
They have #musicians of all ages and abilities, and play for the love of sharing #music.

This interests me. There's a classical orchestra in Stockholm, founded in 2005, that is not a public institution but a joint-stock company, Sw. aktiebolag. They've been commercially viable for 19 years and counting. Most rock bands aren't.
The Eugene Symphony is having a family concert today. They’re advertising it with “Wigglers and dancers welcome,” and I LOVE IT. I’m going to a chamber music concert which will 100 percent NOT welcome wiggling or dancing, but as an adult who sat, wiggled, and probably made noise through a lot of music as a kid - and got in trouble for it - I appreciate my local #orchestra. #music#children#Oregon
Any time period, any style -- I'm interested in seeing different ways of combining these forces, and studying the nuts and bolts of #orchestration.
If you're a #conductor, #choral director, or #composer who has wrestled with this, what would you say are the key do's and don'ts of writing for this combination?
Let's start another #SymphonicMonday. Just post some symphonic/orchestral music that you like, from rock/metal or any other genre, symphonies, soundtracks etc.
We're climbing the rankings a little but we need your help!
This vote will help a #community#orchestra put on our Christmas concert and share our love of #music. NULCO have been more than happy to adapt to my #disability needs by, eg, carrying my things and making sure I have a lift.
Really, they've been a lifeline during a time when I've been able to do very little. It's super important to me that we can keep doing that for all our members.
For #SymphonicMonday today, a recent upload on the Nintendo of America Youtube channel: The Legend of Zelda Orchestra Concert [Nintendo Live 2024 TOKYO] 🎮🎶
