Hi Richard, there is a contest to make microtonal demo tunes with MOTU. Selection of contestants is over and now we all must make at least 3 microtonal demonstration pieces. The Dance of the Unicorn is in a werckmeister equal beating variant.
this prelude is very nice. the descending register pattern is a nice variation. I see you sneak in the left hand :-)

Lovely Richard glad to hear some more orchestral stuff on here.
I don't play the piano pieces by the way I'm not even Grade 1 on piano! All computer generated but I hope to get them performed soon.
Cheers beautiful music here!

It's a piece about 4 years old that was my first attempt at using synth voices,, I am still looking for a good one,, if anyone knows.

This is fabulous! The instruments perfectly compliment one another, in fact, they dance! And the synth voices sound great - much better than any I've found! Wonderful piece of music, beautifully performed.

Hi Richard - I don't like being bored :-) I also am experimenting with some success with microtonal music as well. Drop by www.notonlymusic.com and www.chrisvaisvil.com some time.

Your development as a composer is stunning since a year ago when I checked your last RPM record out. I owe you a proper review of this record, which I will follow-through on soon. All that aside, this track is so pretty... really great all around. Good job!

I really enjoyed the listen of this album. Though I am a 'roots' americana guy myself, I love classical and probably listen to this style more than to any other. I especially love the interplay of lines which make the harmonies as opposed to chord-based pop music. Your selections very nicely fed this appreciation. Thanks for making the world a bit more beautiful, awe-inspiring and majestic.

This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

stunning!! a bit of the Spanish Celt eh? im wondering are you a fan of Lorenna Mckenett?, if not you should def give her a listen, im sure you'd enjoy.....back to this,,,very well done,, great musicianship, all around, and the recording is your usual A+
yes evocative,, minor key i believe? they usually have that rich not so bright feel... not sure if that makes it dark,,,does bring to my mind a openness, and richness,,i really like,, i find this compelling and subductive.. well played,, look forward to hearing more of your rpm

Have had some time to listen to this in my car during the work week. Excellent piece, took some time to wrap my head around it completely.

wow, beautiful and intense!
wonderful composition! bach-like elements with an overall reverential quality, i like this very much.

Thanks for the listen and comment on the improv Richard!
Ah, great arrangement, Richard!
Hey Richard! Great stuff... LOVE the strings!!! Great "sit back, think, and feel" music for me... Just outstanding.
interesting,,, i hear many bach motifs strung throughout,, do you ever listen to the WTC such as preludes 1 ? ,,, well anyway well done R
beautiful. Wish I still had keys with a choir sound like that. I used to have a mirage keys...and they sounded alot like the keys u used.
2:30 into it, very nice. Love the contrast between the sections.

So soothing and deep with really nice harmonies.
