Broadening my percussion skills I still learned a few new things from [Wayback/Archive] Instructional Video: Orchestral Bass Drum – YouTube.

I found it while looking how to make wind sounds on a concert bass drum: [Wayback/Archive] How to create wind/whooshing sound effect in orchestra : composer

Query: [Wayback/Archive] making a wind sound on a concert base drum – Google Search

In the end, I might build something like a Wind machine – Wikipedia / Windmachine – Wikipedia

The reason: despite the score of Loch Ness – A Scottish Fantasy by Johan de Meij having an optional wind machine, I could hardly find any orchestra that uses it for their YouTube videos. The best video of it I could find was [Wayback/Archive] North Oakland Concert Band plays Loch Ness by de Meij – YouTube which also included a bagpipes player.

[Wayback/Archive] Loch Ness | Johan de Meij | Music | AM07

The symphonic poem ‘Loch Ness’ consists of five through-composed impressions of this mysterious Scottish Lake.

  • The Lake At Dawn – calm, static, sonorous blocks depict the troubled opaque water surface and the enormous depth of the Lake at daybreak.
  • Slowly the rising early-morning mist reveals the distant ruins of Urquhart Castle, represented by a solemn theme in the trombones which is taken over by the full band, thus evoking the illustrious past of this fortress besieged so many times.
  • Inverness: Bagpipes and Tourists – the music takes us down to the town of Inverness where the first tourists mark the slow but steady start of a new season to the sound of a Scottish melody.
  • Storm – suddenly a heavy wheater breaks: fierce gusts of wind and heavy showers transform the erstwhile calm surface into an obscure and whirling mass of water, and clouds rapidly passing over offer an eery scene…
  • Conclusion – storm and rain gradually decrease and when everything is quiet again we are granted a last view of the Lake in its full glory.
