Greetings, friends
How are you? Can I get some help?

According to the title. I want to compose music using this referenced video.
From 00:00 - 00:22 only.

The question is :
1. What style (genre) of music is this? (Is this a Waltz? or Opera? or else?)
2. What musical instruments are featured in the reference video?
3. What other soundbank for Kontakt or VSTi can I use to create music similar to that in the reference video?
I only have Kontakt or VSTi as possibilities. The only instrument I can play is the guitar.

I've tried Sonokinetic Carousel, Evolution Series World Reeds Harmonium, Sampleism Bandoneon, Wavesfactory Little Harmonium. But the sound is somewhat different from the reference video.

Maybe you could tell me what soundbanks I should use to create a rhythm section like in the example video (00:00 - 00:22), please?

Thanks in advance for any help

 

Not sure about the exact genre, I would call that "disney musical" or (the kind of thing you find in Disney movie or in Broadway and stuff like that, not sure about my translation too, as English is not my main language). The rythme seem to be a waltz as you said.

To make that is all about the orchestration and arrangement, you can achieve that with most orchestral bank in Kontakt, I really like the Spitfire one, but they will tend to sound like a classical orchestra which can sound a bit big for that kind of sound, so be sure to use the closest mic setup instead of the very large lmic position.

On that specific type of sound I know ProjectSam got some good bank for Kontakt too, like Symphobia 2, Colour Orchestrator or Animator which gave you a sound close to those find in movies, less "big classical orchestration" type of sound.

Hope that help

 

^ Hello & fellow greetings

^ You can call it Fantasy Music,the time signature here is 3/4 so its waltz

^ Strings/low strings pizzicato/marcatto,spicatto,choir shorts,keeping the 3/4 time signature/rythym/chord structure + arranged woodwinds,violins & violas legato articulations playing the main melody in unison/tutti or an octave apart, harp glissandos for the transitions + woodwind runs, (some celeste & glockenspiel is often used into this kind of compositions)

^ What comes to mind : definitely check these if you want to create something similar :

^ I'm not familiar with the above so I don't have an opinion on these

^ Have a great day cheers !

 

I hear a fairly large string section, given how the legato is lacking in detail. I want to say piccolo, and maybe oboe on the same voice, harp for transition, flute run, clarinet comes to follow the melody in its lower/chalumeau range. I would say this is not the highest quality orchestral library being used. So something from Sonuscore, Audio Imperia, along those lines.

Hello @Semarus
Interesting.
The information is intriguing that I found on Google about Chalumeau. Thank you

I appreciate the suggestion. I might attempt from the Audio Imperia Nucleus.
Many thanks, and have a great day
