Dream Theater's HOME break down
Congratulations. You have been accepted to Dream Theater University. Let's start the school year off with your first course: a look at Dream Theater's HOME off of our album, SCENES FROM A MEMORY. Class will begin in September. Please prepare for this course by creating a full orchestral transcription of HOME. Extra credit if you include a gospel choir and bassoon part.
Actually, you do not need to do anything but enjoy the series of videos I'm creating where I look at the composition, my playing styles, sounds that I used to record and play it live, how I program the Korg Kronos to play it live and I'll share stories from the road and the studio.
Coming this September!!!!

This brings back memory’s of music from John McLaughlin
Such a cool idea !!
Looking forward to this!
Awesome! In my opinion the entire album - Scenes From A Memory - represent a masterpiece. Much more Home is one of my favorite songs from the album. Will be a great challenge to create the full orchestration transcription of HOME but I love the idea. So I'm very excited and looking forward to the series!
This is such a great idea Jordan. Looking forward to this.
Very much looking forward to that , can use all the help I can get with my Kronos .. I buy a spaceship of a keyboard and I’m a tech dummy! Mind you , I got a job doing roofing and I’m scared of heights 😂 . There’s a screw loose in this head lol
So excited for this!!!
Awesome!!!
Looking forward to this one!
Very cool, and you even picked my favorite song from the album. 'Twas a treat to see you all play this live when you came to my neck of the woods. I'm a sucker for all things phrygian sounding so this one stood out big time when I first heard it. Looking forward to the series! :D
Love the scale and time rhythm variations... Hats off as always sir !
Awesome!!!!
That's amazing! Always a privilege to learn from the master!

If I got some help, you'll receive both bassoon and oboe 😁 Ok, I'm not doing it, but I liked the idea 😄
