These Amazing musicians! Their sight reading must be world class best of the best!

[@paxwallacejazz]

This is a much needed tribute to the highly trained professional hard working instrumental musician. The folks who've spent a lifetime practicing their craft those few who understand it's 90%perspiration and 10%inspiration those few who can sight read anything, those few who understand that keeping your word and being on time is the hallmark of professionalism. Phenomenally intelligent often humble they aren't the preening musically ignorant premadonnas who are falsely held up by pop producers to an ignorant public as the musicians to admire. In fact in their magnanimous culturally informed equanimity many of these real musicians do appreciate some of these false idols.These men and women have knowingly chosen a thankless overlooked incredibly competitive profession that is not nearly as ubiquitous as it once was due to technology and recorded music. They are highly educated culturally and historically it comes with the territory. They are often and highly individualistic and eccentric. They can never actually be replaced no matter how advanced technology becomes.

You're preaching!!!!! That's 200% correct

Man, RIP, Brian. Great horn player.

[@grimjim100]

Yes sir the finest musicians in the world! Their sight reading is second to none! I remember recording nine overtures in one day with great session players, nine hours with almost no rehearsal with the National Philharmonis Orchestra of London. All principals or past principal players of the greatest orchestras and chamber groups in the world with many thousands of film scores, opera scores, ballet music scores etc. under their belts. 007 scores, Superman scores, Starwars scores, Harry Potter scores, Disney scores, etc, etc,. Yes sir the finest orchestral session musicians in the world - in London! (opps we are talking about London or is it LA)

[@antonio-di-iorio]

One of the best orchestras in the world!!

[@michaelladarkangelsparkle9908]

Whoa! Awesome! I'm a tpt player in reno and it's been a dream to be a sessions player for movies and shows😍 I've even had lessons with Wayne Bergeron and Marissa Benedict and am looking forward to moving and giving it a shot😁

[@violinhunter2]

Session work and pit work are (for me) the most fascinating. One has to have not only the technical skills but the reading skills as well. As the man said, the rhythm and intonation have to be near-perfect. (The control room will take care of the sound) This is not like rehearsing the Tchaikovsky fourth symphony for three days and performing it at Disney Concert Hall on the fourth, fifth, and sixth day.

[@violinhunter2]

The splicing technology at these studios is phenomenal so any flubs can be erased as if by magic by simply recording over them. The players know this so they play with great confidence. Bowings for the strings and articulation issues for the winds and brass are addressed on the spot. The engineers have to have great ears.

[@brichpmr]

Yes, however even excellent community orchestras can sight read Tchaik 4. The top pro orchestras can read the notes, which allows the rehearsal time to focus on in-depth interpretation which varies by whoever is conducting. Seamlessly performing an hour long symphony is different than nailing a series of shorter session cues...both require A game skills, and I love these session clips!

[@kezadrone]

Love the piece played over this. the way score used to sound.

[@edrugmanmusic]

What a superb group of musicians! I recognise many of these faces. What a great idea!

[@nnovatakaren5515]

Damn! Once upon a time this was my dream

[@planetmischief]

What happened?

[@JasonFerguson1283]

How exciting!! I’m a 30 take wonder lately!! Lol! That’s on my own music!! These guys are the heavy players!

[@fredericbernard4309]

It's a joy watching these musicians work and talk about their work. Everyone there seems so passionate and spirited! Also the sound...wow! Most score recordings from Hollywood obviously got a warmth and clarity that you will hardly find anywhere else (with the exception of some European Orchestras, especially some in London). Looking forward to recording with you guys, if the time is right! Warm Regards from Germany! -Frederic fredericbernardmusic.com

Hi! Only for information: how much could it cost to register a composition of 5 '?

[@Geocranium]

What is the name of the song that starts at 2:51? I must know. It's a terrific tune and I'd love to hear it without the commentary over it.

[@drumcorpskat]

This is what I want to do for my career. Does anyone have any advice? There’s virtually no information on this career.

[@GameroftheWinds]

The reason there is so little information is because this type of work is usually clustered in cities like LA, New York and Nashville and most of the time the people being contracted in these positions are skilled and very long time veterans of their instruments and craft. This is not the type of work that is open and looking for "fresh talent". The musicians who get contracted from this work already are extremely well connected with the contractors and composers who hire these musicians. I once considered doing this type of work but there were a few things that made me realize that its not for me. Here are some things to consider before entering this career path in music: -Your sight reading has to be top notch, they aren't joking when they say you have to be able to play ANYTHING they put in front of you on the spot. You almost never get music before hand and are pretty much sight reading all the time. While I have been working on my sight reading, the idea that I can't practice a piece of music, evoke its musicality and really dig in and bring it to life steered me clear from this type of work. While I do not doubt the sheer genius and skill of the musicians in this line of work, I do believe that having to play something sight read as opposed to rehearsed and practiced harms the potential for musicality no matter how good of a musician you are. -You are pretty much a cog in the machine in these sessions, you are there to play your part exactly as it is written. If you are a soloist by heart which is what I am then this might not be the musical career choice for you. -This is a thankless job through and through. Disgustingly, session musicians are rarely credited in a movies credits so if someone wants to know who played the drums on a track you were in they are going to have to do some serious digging. -You usually have to be in these cities to even find work, now you may have heard that these musicians get paid well but I am quite confident that if you compare the often exorbitant COL in many of these cities you will realize that the pay is actually not all that great. -This type of work is probably the most high pressure type of career a musician can be involved in. Why? Think about it, if you mess up in a performance, you keep going and in hindsight the audience will probably forget. You mess up in a session? Not only will the music probably have to STOP but the entire take will probably have to be cut, all the sound engineers and staff behind the scene will all blame you for screwing up the take, all the work that the musicians just did in that take is now down the drain. oh and that contractor who hired you in the first place, they are probably the same contractor for many of the other studios in the area and you can bet they wont call you again. Hopefully that gave you at least a little bit of info! If you still want to pursue this career path then I wish you all the luck 😄
