Dear PCAM Members,
PCAM has received the email below from a Finnish composer/arranger, Jussi Lampela, who is running an online arranging course during August that might be of interest to some PCAM members. The four-session course is offered to PCAM members at a discount price of 80 euros, and links for more information and for signing up are below.
Best regards,
The PCAM Committee
Jussi Lampela says: I am a composer/arranger from Finland and am writing to you about an arranging course I’m organising that could be of interest to PCAM members.
The online arranging course will be held on four consecutive Saturdays in August, starting on 3 August. All of the sessions will be recorded so you will also get a chance to view the webinar recordings afterwards. The course targets all levels of musicians/composers/arrangers that would like to get systematic tools to enhance their arranging skills.
Although the course is targeted towards popular music, big band, and jazz, the concepts I’m presenting are applicable for all genres, and will present everyone with tools to handle writing for all kinds of groups, be it for a small horn section, wind band, symphony orchestra, choir, or any other kind of ensemble.
A special feature of the course is the focus on “There Will Never Be Another You”, and how to arrange the first 8 bars in many ways and styles. I also have the Finnish Air Force Big Band to play the big band examples for us.
I have taught orchestration and arranging in my country (Finland) for years, and have helped hundreds of students to get better at the craft.
