Nice footage, however, needless to say, quality of musicians does not depend on the location, but on the selection. Finally, best trailers composers use Capellen Orchestra, its musicians also need not waste recording time rehearsing. Moreover, the effectivity of recording depends on the orchestrator and conductor, who can prepare the score the way to record extremely fast. That is the true hint for composers looking for great and effective music recordings.
