WDR Big Band Play Along
Deutsche Orchester-Stiftung!
The WDR Big Band wanted a modern App to let musicians play along the. The App offers printable scores and a mixer to adjust the volume of single instruments.
Select, download, listen to or open individual tracks in the mixer - everything works with just a few taps. And, of course, playing with the WDR Big Band. Simply select a title, mute the respective audio track of the desired instrument and off you go. Two titles are included in the app at once. Others are available for free download.
The arrangers and composers of the WDR Big Band have created the arrangements especially for the app. The criteria for this were the range of instruments as well as the rhythmic and melodic complexity of the pieces.
The basic functions:
Slider: This is where you can jump back and forth in the title.
Mixer: It is used to control the volume of the individual instruments, mute instruments or listen to individual tracks.
Treble clef: Behind it are the notes for the individual voices for the eleven available instruments (1st alto saxophone, 1st tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, 1st trumpet, 2nd trumpet, 1st trombone, bass trombone, guitar, piano, bass and drums).
Export button: The audio is saved as mp3-file in the cloud or sent by e-mail.
