Here is a screenshot of the completed version of Stay With Me by Sam Smith. I used the software, Pro tools, to create my project.
What I did
To make this piece more expressive, I added vibrato and volume contrast to help make the piece grow and decay and the right moments. I used reverb solely on the trumpet that played the melody. I did this mainly to make it stand out and sound a little different. I also used panning to help widen out the sound. I thought putting the melody in one ear and the counter melody, played by the flute, would also help make the piece colorful. I chose to double the organ and the piano/string part. I then, panned them to different sides and hoped it helped make the sound more interesting.
