The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra is an orchestra composition written in 1945, by Benjamin Britten, and premiered in Liverpool, England, on October 15, 1946. The work was requested by the UK Ministry of Education and used in “Instruments of the Orchestra”, a short film meant to educate about music (Bridcut, 2012). The following paragraph gives a short description of the composition and its instrumental families.
The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra is played by a symphony orchestra that includes woodwinds, brass, percussion and stringed instruments. Two flutes, two clarinets, two bassoons, two oboes and a piccolo represent the woodwinds instrumental family. Four horns, two trumpets, three trombones and bass tuba belong to the brass family. Whip, tam-tam, castanets, xylophone, wood block, snare drum, triangle, tambourine, cymbals, bass drum and timpani form percussion. Stringed family is represented by harp, first and second violins, violas, cellos and double basses (Schwarm, 2016). The composition was written in a way of showing the capabilities of each section of an orchestra. While the introduction is played by the entire orchestra, starting with the woodwinds, followed by stringed, brass and, in the end, percussion instruments, each further variation is played by a separate instrumental family, starting with the higher and moving to the lower-pitched instruments. The orchestra reassembles again in the final theme, written in the form of fugue (Schwarm, 2016). Instruments overlap, introducing a new melody. The original theme is played again in the grand finale.
The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra introduces listeners to contrasting sounds of instruments and entire instrumental families. It also exposes them to musical forms of previous centuries. Benjamin Britten has allowed each instrument to have the stage in the sequence of instrumental leaps, while the background is occupied by different melodic ideas, making the composition not just a great sound piece, but an educational example for those, who begin to learn about music and orchestra.

I was trying to choose between EssaysEmpire.com and another online writing service and I didn’t know which one to pick. Then, I began to read reviews. I didn’t read even one thing negative about EssaysEmpire.com, and the other site was fraught with complaints. I went with EssaysEmpire.com, and it turned out that all the good things I had read about the service were true. My paper was fully guaranteed, but it was A-1 quality. The customer service people were great. The prices were right. Now, I am a devoted fan. When I need help with my writing, I go straight to EssaysEmpire.com! |

Thanks goes out to the writer who filled my order. He did everything right the first time around. I had to ask for one tiny revision, but that was my own fault for leaving it out of the directions. |

Given the short amount of time I gave your writers to create my term paper, I was amazed by how good it was when I received it back! It appeared they had spent months writing it, rather than just one week. Thank you, EssaysEmpire.com! I enjoyed doing business with you. You are a fabulous writing company. |

I don’t see how anyone could write a paper about something as boring as the psychology of the two year old, could make it sound so interesting, but your writers managed to pull it off. Thank you for putting forth such a concerted effort to do a good job. I really appreciate it. I will use your service again |

To the writers at EssaysEmpire.com: Next week, I will be graduating with a degree in clinical psychology. Over the course of my college years, I have had to turn to you for help many times. Each and every time, you produced some of the highest quality writing my professors had ever seen. Because of you, I was able to keep a high grade point average and get into an excellent grad school. There are simply no words adequate enough to fully express my appreciation, so I’ll simply say, “thank you” and let it go at that. Please know that you are appreciated. |

Your writing service is phenomenal. I love the fact that EssaysEmpire.com is even open on Christmas day. You never close, and that tells me that you are dedicated to students like me who might need help over the holidays or any time. The work you do is superior to that of other writing services. I’d say that overall, one simply can’t beat EssaysEmpire.com. Thanks for all that you do for students like me. |
