..very nice, but could it be that you uploaded the wrong track? This sounds very much like the well known Japanese Ceremonial Welcome melody written by the two former pilots: Sum Ting Long/Wee toh Ro..

Woah...eerie cleverness.

nicely done Chris

jkgh

Oooh spacey!!!!!!!!!

Now thats cool

Wow great sound nice one

Like it

I like the earthy quality of this.... Second time through, I'm noticing the great lyrics and the two part harmony even more. I like the acoustic version a lot, but this begs for an electric guitar set on fire. Maybe you need two versions of this song.

SPOOKY done brilliantly.

You've got a really great voice, Chris. Lovely tone. (Love the title too!)

Happy Birthday and thanks so much for sharing this amazing musical creation! This is outstanding!

This would be a great soundtrack for a sci-fi film. Very cool, my friend!

Really hypnotic, I like the change up at the 2:02 mark!

Nice one

A bucket full of eerie synths!

I agree Big sounds very powerful music... and lead.. excellent work everyone :) Chris with that intro to the entrance exam besides not knowing you had put this song/and title out there ... really :) I it was created with novation's supernove midi's outs into the motif rack.. and then just working thru the presets already made on the motif rack with the programed by me presets on the supernova II :) and then out to the korg xl micro.. but this is all power you guys have made here... very nice..

Foot tapper for sure.

what fun!,, this is very atmospheric,, like it

This is beautiful.

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.
