Yes, you have captured a 15th century feel with the beautiful mandolin? Then the pomp of the trumpet. Cleverly done. I would like to hear more of the mandolin style you have here sometime, it's gorgeous.
warning!!! this is a long 10+ min instrumental
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.
The music itself is a tone poem, loosely dedicated to a children…

hello again friend,, a major story begins...? as i have said prior your story telling is wonderful, i also find it very picturesque, your words create images, imagery, that is quite strong, like the pieces you make and share,,, take care R
This is finger picked (quasi – classical guitar) improvisation with my wife’s Seagull acoustic guitar with Dean Markley soundhole pick up and AKG microphone with mastering.
Fathers Day on Sunday....
Thought I'd write a song for my son.
Here you go lad...
As the Sun shines....Lyrics
And my boy.....
You Smile so wide as the sun shines.
But you will keep your joy as the clouds try,
to stop our light…
such a beautiful journey is parenthood, sometimes the toughest of we can ever do,,both wonderful and tough, because of the love we feel,,,, as a fellow traveler on this same road for the past 23 years, i wish you joy, strength, and courage,, this is a fine song,,, R
really nice,, listening to this in headphones i can almost feel/see the bending/vibrating of the drum skin,, your recordings are very rich it's kind of neat because on one hand,, one might think it's just a simple drum,, but as i listen i always hear so many sound textures/timbre from the way different parts of you hands touch/hit to the different parts of the drum being hit , it's a very rich experience, and that's not even mentioning the wonderful rhythms you show us,,,drums are a very sensual sound,,, very nicely done,,i always look forward to hearing from you Richard

And when we find ourselves in the place just right,

A composition for 3 piece jazz band, tenor sax, fretless bass, and drums in 14 equal divisions of the octave and 5/4 time. This was realized using Garritan Jazz and Big Band sample set and Sonar X1.
Home made cannon in Just Intonation, cymbals struck by hand and bowed. (I don't own so many cymbals - I made a field recording while walking through the cymbal room at Sam Ash. A most exciting experience actually!) I did buy two cheap cymbals…
The B side to Dad's father's day present. This is an instrumental celebration of his 45 years in the printing industry, and an acknowledgement that while other kids got bedtime stories, I got the history of lithography..

In 2009 I ran an internet contest where contestants had to use one or more of the samples provided in their piece. Here I put together a number of the samples I provided into one piece.

Soothing. Pretty. The pieces all have a beethoven moonlight sonata quality.
Its nice but just when I thought it was too progression-y at aroun 3 min, the piece changed direction. The mood stayed the same though. Nice work.
Wow your piano touches are unique & mystic! i can listen to your music catalog all day...just like having my Beethoven station on.
Tasteful!
Oh My! I'm only 2 minutes in, but this is just Gorgeous!
Yes, this is wonderful. Thanks my huckleberry friend.
delicately played with great delivery and tone.
Very elegant Sir.
Sweet like candy!
such lovely control of your two hands. I wish I could play like you.
When I was a kid this was one of my favorite songs to sing. It is so beautiful. Your arrangement and performance is to die for Richard. So lovely.
Gorgeous arrangement of a Classic melody!
Sweet.
Magical times indeed... This is a stunning performance.
Oh my... Love the mandolin voice especially. Some lovely flavours here.
I am still trying to get my faves back. This is so wonderful. Extraordinary!
