We're happy to start 2025 with the OrchPlay upgrade to version 3.8.

OrchPlay 3.8 introduces a new search engine for nearly 10,000 annotated musical examples, which can be previewed and then saved as a bookmark list for your class or presentation.

‍

New Features

Find Bookmark and Create List Interface (beta)

• Search though nearly 10,000 orchestration examples annotated with the Orchestration Techniques taxonomy
• Preview any example by double-clicking on them
• Quick Add Selection to Bookmark List button, allowing you to quickly prepare presentations or class material
• Click the question mark for information on how to best perform a search

Note: Examples using streaming from the Naxos Music Library are only available for Music Institutions that have Naxos Music Library subscriptions.
