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.
Now.... this is a lovely sensitive piece!

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.

Ok.... this is a song made almost entirely of samples from The Beatles Rubber Soul album digitized by an 8-bit sound blaster from the line out of a portable CD player. It was composed…
Sadly, an unfinished track I recorded about the time I ran out of money. Back when I was writing four or five tunes a day. Played guitars, mandolin, keyboards, and I'm guessing it's my original keyboard drum and bass parts that I did at home…
i sent a note but i do not see it so here goes again
really,, really nice piece,, i like the way you work the theme,, is it a synth oboe or what? again,, nice piece
wow, i like some of the vocal style/tempo/ ways you do this song,,,,, do you have a classical/show music type of background? something about the structure in these songs makes me think that,, well done R
indeed pretty cool,, this has an interesting mix of a strong/louder lyric style set against a softer understated instrumental,,and then at times they mix,, indeed pretty cool
Hello, I thought I'd upload a track from 1993's Strange Beauty today. It was reviewed by the WMR (Weekly Module Reviews) team (in 1996 I'm guessing.) These reviews were published on "uesnet" about music posts to the same system - Usenet is an…
I generally take my Zoom H2 portable digital recorder with me on my trips to music stores to record myself playing equipment I can’t afford to buy. This is one of today’s recordings. June 24th 2011

They had a piano fight down the cellar last night Reg doesn't understand whats happening with all this violence i mean he's just a hippie at heart.....At least no-one got hurt......They just had fun this time!
i like this,,fun bounce around piece,, i have been learning/working on some of Scott Joplins music this early summer,, it's something you might like to play/see if you are not already familiar with it,, nice play,, take care R

There ain't no future without a past

This is a traditional piece that dates back to at least the 16th century. Since the version I have is instrumental I used what is called Pythagorean Tuning and period instruments to render it. (alto recorder, bells (crotales), fiddle, and bodhran…
Berceuse (means cradle song - or lullaby) by Chopin Op. 57 midi recorded by Ron Lubetsky, M.D. in 1997. And indeed I can tell from the midi file this was a real performance. I ran it through pianoteq in Sonar X1. I hope you enjoy it.

thanks Chris,, i'll have to look into this one,, Chopin is,,, well who can argue with Chopin,, im not familiar with this but the right hand is getting a great work out, it's a beautiful piece and nicely played thanks for sharing
quite interesting/cool, im currently working on my own version (piano solo) of this piece, i find it actually quite difficult, because it's such a strong piece of music,,,, anyway thanks for your interpretation,, and yes i agree with Norm on its nature
The berimbau is a Brazilian instrument associated with Capoeira, which is a Brazilian art form that combines elements of martial arts, sports, and music. It was created in Brazil mainly by descendants of African slaves with Brazilian native…
really really cool,, i know a very little about osage orange, it's a cool wood, used for long bows in place of yew,, which is the traditional english wood,, i have a 55 lb osage orange long bow that i built, it is a wood that is a bit soft/stringy, so it needs some form of backing for a bow, i use bamboo,, shoots great and also makes a bit of a twang as i release,, now that i think about it,, anyway,, making ones own tackle is really neat,, wonderful work/demo/story/sound all in one and all around!!
The island of Cuba was a Spanish possession for almost 400 years (1511-1898). The land-owning elite held social and economic power, supported by slaves, both indigenous and of South American and African descent, until slavery was abolished…
very excellent,, both the music, and the story,one of the things i find so compelling about music is that, it is an art that exists only in the moment, of the beat, the hearing, the heart, i enjoyed this alot thanks for both

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.
