You have a wonderful sense of phrasing.

Just lovely ... pulls on the heartstrings.

Dude . ....... This is stunning....... Such a reflective sound.... Your arrangement sounds like it should have been the definitive one! Sublime!

Beautifully played Richard.

Gorgeous!

Hi Richard, Re: Hotel Cali => yes clarinet for main vocal, oboe for backing vocal - everything you hear is from Kontakt's standard sample set. Thank you for the listen and comment!

Again man....amazing

That is some damn fine work there Richard. FAV'D!

Beautiful interpretation. Takes me to a good place.

You are right on the money for Knife Edge here is a right up I found "Knife Edge", is based on the first movement of Janáček’s Sinfonietta (1926) with an instrumental middle section that includes an extended quotation from the Allemande of Johann Sebastian Bach's first French Suite in D minor, Cheers mate.

I really like the solem tones you get from your piano. And I wanted to answer your question you left on one of my pieces. I answered before on another one, but I think this site could really use a reply system. For the Hobbit piece I mainly used a sample library called Project Sam Symphobia. The other earlier orchestra pieces mainly used Garritan Personal Orchestra - but I'm trying to branch out and get a bigger more cinematic (and realistic) sound. Glad you like it.

I'm completely satisfied. brilliant.

Ah, cute and pretty.

A most sympathetic variation of this extraordinary piece and so well played.

Mmmm, lovely stuff.

Man....amazing take on a classic Richard. Always loaded with emotion. Per you comment on Desert Song, you would have to talk with Djork on the flute, I know a little about his set-up but he was the mastermind on the basic track format. I just added my touch to an already great track. :)

Thanks for listening and commenting mate cheers.

Very nice.

well done!
