Here are my covers of movie scores. I do everything by ear, so there might be some mistakes!

Movie scores Covers

I used Garritan Personal Orchestra to do this cover by ear, and it's actually the first time I ever used this software so I'm still struggling with mixing :)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 - Courtyard Apocalypse Cover

This orchestral cover was done only by ear, so excuse any mistake, I did my best though! Since I only have a pretty weak laptop, it's not powerful enough to deal with Garritan Personal Orchestra in Cubase and all the effects I have to put on each track, so sorry for the bad sound quality and the weird "distortions" especially towards the end, it's terrible :(

Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire - Hogwarts' Hymn Cover

Here's a cover of the track "Obliviate", from the movie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. I did my best, but since I do everything by ear, I apologize if there's any mistake :)
I used Garritan Personal Orchestra to do this, I can't afford any other library, and since transcripting movie scores is only a hobby I guess GPO is enough for me :)
Thanks a lot for listening ! 

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 - Obliviate Cover (full orchestra)

Here's a little cover I did of a track from the movie Somewhere in Time. It was composed by John Barry. I used Steinberg's Grand Piano 2 and Garritan Personal Orchestra for the violin. Thanks a lot for listening ! :)

John Barry - Somewhere In Time Cover (Piano&Violin)

As usual, it's a cover I did by ear to work on transcribing scores. Sorry if there's any mistake ! 
I first heard this melody on TV, in an ad for a famous watch brand. I used Steinberg's Grand Piano 2 and Garritan Personal Orchestra with Cubase 5. I did my best to find the notes ! Thanks a lot for listening !

Harry Gregson-Williams - Smiling cover (full orchestra)

Here's a cover of one of my favourite tracks from Batman Begins' original soundtrack. It's called Corynorhinus. I did everything by ear, so I apologize if there's any mistake ! 
Everything was played and recorded without any quantization, in Cubase 5 with Garritan Personal Orchestra and Steinberg Grand Piano 2 ! (and a Yamaha NP-V80) 
Thanks a lot for listening folks !

Hans Zimmer - Corynorhinus (Batman Begins) COVER (full orchestra)

Here's a cover of a track from the movie The Impossible. It's called "He looked so Happy", and was composed by Fernando Velazquez. Everything is done by ear so as usual, I apologize if there's any mistake ! 
I played and recorded everything with a Yamaha NP-V80 keyboard, Cubase 5, Garritan Personal Orchestra and Steinberg's Grand Piano 2. 
Thanks for listening !

Fernando Velázquez - He looked so Happy (From "The Impossible") - Cover (full orchestra)

Here's a small cover of a pretty short track from the movie "The Cider House Rules". It's the main theme of the movie, composed by Rachel Portman (Oliver Twist). As usual, I played everything by ear with a Yamaha NP-V80, Cubase 5, Garritan Personal Orchestra and Steinberg's Grand Piano 2. Thanks for listening guys !

ps : I never use quantization, it makes me feel like a robot is playing <:o)

Rachel Portman - The Cider House Rules Main Title Cover (full orchestra)

Here's a cover of one of my favourite themes, it's from the movie Cast Away, starring Tom Hanks. This theme was composed by Alan Silvestri. I try to do my best with cubase and GPO. Everything was done by ear so sorry if there's any mistake! 
Thanks for listening !

Alan Silvestri - Cast Away Main Theme cover (full orchestra)

Here's a cover of a really short track. It's one of my favorite themes from Alexandre Desplat. Since this was played during the very last scene at Hogwarts, it was really emotional to think all these movies were over. 
As usual, I did everything by ear, played every single note with a Yamaha NP-V80 and Cubase. This is the first time I use LA Scoring Strings 2 though.

- Garritan Personal Orchestra
- Cubase 5

Alexandre Desplat - A New Beginning (from "The Deathly Hallows Part 2") COVER (full orchestra)

Here's a cover of Lily's theme, from the last movie of the saga. It's pretty sad but beautiful. I played every note by ear, and for the voice I used Shevannai Voice of the Elves. The sound is a bit weird because Cubase 5 crashed like 5 times, and when I finally made it run, Kontakt crashed and I had to reload the samples... Well the sound's weird...
Thanks for listening though ! :D

Alexandre Desplat - Lily's theme COVER (full orchestra) / Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Here's my transcription of "Leaving Hogwarts", the music that's playing at the end of the first and the last movie of the saga. I did everything by ear so I hope there's not too many mistakes! It took me about 9 hours to record and edit everything! So tiring !
Everything was done with LA Scoring Strings 2 and Garritan Personal Orchestra in Cubase 5. 

Thanks for listening !

John Williams - Leaving Hogwarts COVER (full orchestra)/ Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

Here's my cover of one of my favorite tracks from the movie "The Lord of the Rings : The Two Towers". It was composed by Howard Shore and could be heard when Eowyn and all the citizens of Edoras made it to Helm's Deep. The end, which is pretty emotional, was played when Eowyn thought Aragorn was killed during the wargs' attack.
As usual, EVERYTHING was done BY EAR, and every single sound/note you hear was played by myself with a Yamaha NP-V80 keyboard. Sorry if there's any mistake then ! :)
Thanks for listening !

It's a pretty emotional track, definitely one of my favorite from the score. 

Thanks for listening !

Everything was played and recorded by ear, without any sheet. It's been pretty tough! So if there's any mistake, I'm sorry ! :)

Javier Navarrete - Pan's Labyrinth Lullaby COVER (full orchestra)

24 year old student and movie scores enthusiast. 
Every single cover you'll find here was recorded and played BY EAR. 

I basically play every single note I can hear without quantizing anything so it gives it a "natural" sound :)

My usual gear is made of a Yamaha NP V80, cubase AI5 on a Macbook Pro 13" (4 Go RAM) and a bunch of VSTs. 

Thanks for listening to my covers!
