very, very nice. Gotta be my favorite instrument for solos. Good luck and good experience with the RPM. I did it just once and it was the best month of my musical life.

What a gorgeous piece! I actually prefer this one with the longer reverb as it gives the impression of not intruding on the conversation, but listening to it from a distance. Just beautiful Richard!
well this is a bit awkward, but i have been chatting with Nosda Cariad about the various plus and minus of sound settings ie reverb,,, sometimes i feel like i have used too much, as sort of a crutch. in this version the reverb has been toned down…

High quality wav samples over 320 bps will work for you , they are live people playing with the ear and skill to do it well enough to sell.But there are free samples out there for most systems. I will take a look see and drop ya a link , if i find a good one.

First of my rpm traks,, this year i am going to try to learn a bit about composing for midi orchestra, with that in mind i have began (in jan) to read several books on midi orchestration, orchestration and counterpoint,,, while these will probably…
RPM #2, first thank you all for the comments on rpm 1,, once again i forage into the world of midi orchestration,,, while i am beginning with strings and woodwinds,, this is a section from a string piece i am working on,, that somehow led me to…
rpm 3,,cello,cello, contrabass, and bass clarinet,, im really getting to love that clarinet!,, thanks for listening , and please send any comments,suggestions, thoughts richard
rpm #4,, i love watching the local birds,, in winter they seem a bit more eager, in my imagination,, they must spend more of their time sitting around their wood stoves, munching on seeds and telling stories of summer days, all the while as the…

really a fun piece,,, im not exactly sure how to describe this in terms of type (perhaps ive led a sheltered life) but it's very cool,,, once again you show a different side of your creativity,, very nice
Tracy posted a message which said, "If I could write a song about the way I feel right now, it would be a hit." So I grabbed my guitar and came up with this...

another musical/lyrical journey with our friend, Reg,,,,,, you have some interesting/powerful comments,, both personal and global,, interesting piece,,, it seems to me that your choice of media/presentation allows you to say things that others can't or don't,, (which is neither good or bad) anyway i enjoy your work very much.. Richard
Not being particularly religious, I still believe that the soul exists and that it does not die.

I wanna hide no more
And I wanna close the door

Don't ever…
very smooth,,,excellent production backing up such marvelous talent, leads to a wonderful piece,, love your voices,,, in a way this brings to mind the collab of Hal David and Burt Backarat from the 60's and 70's of my youth.... well done sisters R
very nice,,,, i really enjoyed this,, i have one thought,,, it seems to me that the 2 or 3 tracks are somewhat in competition with each other in terms of volume.... piano,string,pipes or such? and all are strong parts in their own right, im used to a little more,, of a hand off between such strong parts with each taking their turn at the lead,, anyhow,, this is a very fine work,, hope you don't mind the comments,,, and as always please,,please feel free to share your thoughts with me Richard
tried to send a note,, but not sure it got through,,,
wowiee!!! great story telling indeed!!!, really like this,, my i suggest that when you have time you listen to regg (thetwroeges) another great story teller here on at (thought of a much different take) there's so many different and great styles here,,, take care,, welcome and look forward to hearing more Richard
wowie,,,great storytelling!!!,,,i look forward to hearing more....my i suggest you take a listen to another great story teller (though of different style from this) on this site regg otherwisw known as thetwags,,, well well done Richard
lovely,, a very mellow tension,, about 2:40ish breaks into rich creamy, tones (i know creamy is an odd description but, that just comes to my mind),, this piece has a beautiful understated sense of drama, and passion,,,masterful!! Richard
Had to try out the Yamaha DX100.
So I combined with the Korg I3.
Hope you like it!
Video is at youtube!See the link here, if you like to see me playing the instruments!
yes welcome to at,, nice to hear you here,,, it's a wonderful place for all of us to play around and listen,,, this is very smooth,, great energy in this
Reg has just finished reading the Sunday Times it's quite a read and he has decided he has had enough of bad news. So he is going to try something different to try to carry on getting his kicks before the whole shit-house falls down…

very, very nice. Gotta be my favorite instrument for solos. Good luck and good experience with the RPM. I did it just once and it was the best month of my musical life.
This is just about perfect for me and I can't help thinking that your description would make a perfect short animation. If only I had the skill.
Absolutely gorgeous piece, Richard. w;-)

Excellent!
Cello is a cool tool.
Solo pieces are a lot harder than full orchestra, in many ways indeed. But this sounds very nice.
Really beautiful music.
Deep tones.
Carried away by this one Richard. Good luck on the RPM, might have to wait and hear the album as a finished piece. :) No spoliers!
Wonderful composition Richard!
These midi tracks are excellent.
Another great track mate.
Excellent track.
Beautiful Richard.
