Very pretty, I was captured by the first few notes.

Oh, isn't she beautiful! A most beautiful piece of music too Chris. Bee

this sounds like an appeal to God for some more water ... guess that is the boat that floats ,, very clean sound work and textures ll

this is pleasant in sound and texture a mellow construction :)

Gosh, what a sorry picture. Shame, all it does here is rain. This is a very well designed track to go with the drought scene. It would be wonderful in a tv documentary! The sounds are awesome!

And a lovely little ping at the end! Bethan

Yay, nicely done Chris.

love the vibe. for some reason, i cant help but hearing a long gong drowning in this one,

Enjoyed that......

Ultra adventurous - cleverness!

That last comment was Bethan, sorry I keep forgetting to sign!

Have I heard this one before from you? Nice and perky, very pretty, a mix of tinkles, which always appeal to me while the flute and basoon work very well together.

I kept meaning to listen to this ever since you first posted it. I didn't have 9 minutes at the time! Then I noticed the attention it was getting - so I reckoned it must be something special... ... found the 9 minutes and.. YES! It is...

Wonderful!!

Beautiful!

wonderful,,, how could i not not fav this? sounds like your modulating the piece a bit as it moves along? very well done,

synaptic!

btw my unicorn had Higgs Boson particles for breakfast served over easy and a large cup of orange juice. The orange juice is to keep this whole thing real.

All encompassing at this time of the morning.....with the mist settling over the hills ....still dark but with an eirry glow.....and it seems to be keeping Seb settled too.......thanks ,.....I may try putting the iPad in his room .....you never know I may get some sleep......

Absolutely gorgeous! w;-)

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.

Nice - I love the rolling piano.

I like this a lot!!

Nice piano solo!

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!

so nice... :-)

Nice!!! You make the piece come alive!

wow every piece I hear is really good! My hat is off to you Lalo Oceja!
