In this episode of The Music Interval Theory Podcast, Frank unpacks the real role of orchestration—not as decoration, but as storytelling. He explains how register, density, and energy placement in your sketch already hint at your orchestration, and how understanding your instrumental vocabulary early in the process can bring your ideas to life. Whether you’re writing for film, games, or the concert hall, this episode will help you think differently about how and when orchestration begins.
