The American Federation of Musicians defines arranging as "the art of preparing and adapting an already written composition for presentation in other than its original form. An arrangement may include reharmonization, paraphrasing, and/or development of a composition, so that it fully represents the melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic structure" (Corozine 2002, p. 3). Orchestration differs in that it is only adapting music for an orchestra or musical ensemble while arranging "involves adding compositional techniques, such as new thematic material for introductions, transitions, or modulations, and endings...Arranging is the art of giving an existing melody musical variety" (ibid).
Arrangements and transcriptions of classical and serious music go back to the early history of this genre. In particular music written for the piano frequently underwent this treatment.[citation needed] The suite of ten piano pieces Pictures at an Exhibition by Modest Mussorgsky, has been arranged over twenty times, perhaps the most famous and notable being that of Maurice Ravel.[citation needed]

Plot: Three-time Juno winner and Grammy-nominated rapper K-os is recruited by CBC to compose a score for the acclaimed CBC Radio Orchestra - in less than four weeks. In a unique role for a broadcaster, CBC was not only there to document the entire affair for its radio, TV and Internet services, the Corp was an active creative partner through its Radio Orchestra - the last remaining one in North America . Burning To Shine not only blurs the line between hip-hop & classical, but also between a public broadcaster and one of its very public citizens, K-os. The documentary reveals the intimate struggle of a red-hot but complex hip-hop artist dealing with a unique challenge, at an important time in his ascendant career. The combination of Kos' impulsive tendencies in contrast to the disciplined rigors of both classical composition and TV/radio broadcasting, makes for natural tension. With only two and a half hours to perform a perfect take with the 30-piece orchestra, Burning To Shine culminates in a triumphant performance of the completed song by K-os with the CBC Radio Orchestra (including tablas, guitar, drums & turntables).

switching channels, haven't found the
right station yet
What I need is Romance '83
I try to fix the tuning on my radio
Getting up I trip over the remote control
What I need is Romance '83
I thought that love and kindness were
the things we all need
A bit of sensitivity
Just living life simple was the thing to
believe in
I don't really know really know anymore
Sharing all the human feelings deep inside
Instead we hide behind machines
I really wonder if there can ever be a
place for a little
A little bit of Romance '83

Your busy when I call you up on the telephone
You're playing those Atari games and
I'm here alone
What I need is Romance '83
Sometimes it makes me think if I can
ever be free
Life is no longer a challenge and there's
no mystery
What I need is Romance '83
I look back on a time when the world
was so young
A beautiful ecology
A flowing river and a bright beautiful
sun was enough
Now I don't really know anymore
Satisfied with only the land and the trees
Instead we mass-produce machines
I really wonder if there can ever be a
place for a little
A little bit of Romance '83
