Choosing
the right combination of instruments:
-
Mix a melodic instrument (i.e., a violin or flute) with an accompanying
instrument (i.e., a guitar, harp or piano)
-
Mix melodic instruments the way so you have every part (high,
middle, bass) covered (i.e., a violin viola, cello)
-
You can mix melodic instruments with accompanying instruments
the way so you have the melodic instrument on the top, the accompanying
in the middle and the bass melodic on the bottom (i.e., a flute,
guitar, cello or violin, harp, cello)
-
If you choose to have a duo mixing two melodic instruments,
try to have one playing in the high register, one in the lower
(i.e., a violin, cello or flute, cello)
