This is excellent Chris! Violin and violas are very intriguing. At times they remind me of myself and violin attempts in vanity! That said I like what you are doing!

"Genocide in Gaza.. genocide in ukraine... Genocide on earth" 🌎..a song inspired by your song .. I should finish it.. thanks for posting your song..

Very magical 🤩🌋💥.. whoa.. 🙀

very nice... I like the microtonals in the viola!!

Great 👍 so very meditational

sounds superb ,nice listen .....cheers tony cee

I like this.. but I like most experiments that fail.. this is really not bad.. the chimes and the voice is great 👍 too much fuzzy stuff on the guitar 🎸 it's the end when they are dropped that you're getting to the good points in the song.. but yes fuzzy buzzing guitar solos are good usually.

Oh wow 😲

pretty

Is there some kind of reason you did that?? If I could give it back I would.. ..

Great,,..absolutely 💯 % great 👍

What a great wake up song for me.. it's like explaining what it means to be awake...

I think it's better not knowing what you are doing.. Really great jamming out there 😁

It's like an art song or something from a modern opera Chris! Well done!

Intergalactic exploration that was quite the journey

Is that Paul Roberson that’s one hell of a voice

oh gosh that is way intense ... I really like songs like this..

Fantastico!

And we have all we need to be who we are now. Great great work 💯👏 👍

Great song, vocal delivery and guitar.

nice, really nice!

Hi - I enjoyed this composition very much. I would like to mention though that the volume was very low. So much so I have to normalize it to listen reasonably. Do you lack software to do this type of manipulation? (or was this on purpose?) In any event this piece impressed me enough to go through your series of sonatas!

I enjoyed playing on this thanks Norm! - no guitars harmed in the improvisation

nice progression

welcome! And excellent track!

Aengus is all Ethno 2.

I love your voice reef. Excellent tune and production - your acoustics sound especially nice.

This is brilliant! Would you consider doing a collaboration sometime?

I suck at most electronica genres (like trance - I don't like the 4 on the floor aspect) and I don't think I've given country a serious try yet as well.

excellent collab!!

nice work - very rich - listened to it several times.

Well, since I have not used MOTU SI I can't compare but you can since you can hear my Kontakt 4 sample set. Sonar 8.5 was / is a radical upgrade if you write more than classical music. But if one were strictly classical composition minded a better (rational!) program than Sonar to score with would make more sense to invest in than sonar 8.5 . I look forward to hearing what you are working on!

I own the piano score but I found an accurate score as a midi file on the net and started from there. (That saved a 2 or 3 hours at my pace.) Then I loaded the file into Sonar 8.5 and orchestrated it by assigning instruments to the VSTi called Kontakt 4 and its Vienna Symphony samples. Adjusting velocities / color / and a few notes took 3-4 hours. The most difficult part was creating the final mix which I'm still not 100% happy with.

lovely, touching. A nice song and excellent vocals / lyrics.

Great vocal harmonies!

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 :-)

Excellent!!

very different - twitch dance :-)

one of my favorites by you!

one word... Chills.
