Orchestration
Giovanna Sanchirico has dedicated herself to orchestration and musical arrangements across diverse fields, including film, video games, and her own compositions. She has worked with a variety of ensembles and orchestras, creating adaptations that range from large symphonic formations to more intimate groups.
One of her specialties is multi-level orchestration, crafting arrangements that allow musicians with different levels of experience to perform together within the same orchestra. This approach has been featured in Latin American orchestral gatherings, fostering inclusion and collective learning through music.
Scores can be delivered in both classical and Hollywood-style formats, tailored to the needs of each project.
