Ah Chris, lovely track. Who cares about the odd note here and there, it shows you played it through. Crumbs, I wish I could! Still can't get F or B - small hands! I take my hat off to you sir!

Very enjoyable. Thanks.

I'm a sucker for acoustic. Thanks for sharing.

Dysfuncional goodness

Love it some great sounds as sister says Epic with a capital E.......shame the cramp stopped it....has a taste of E.L.P...great stuff

Very coooool, i hate it when string break.

Haha, let's hear it for the hand cramps! Epic sounds!

Way to work through the pain!

Beautiful. I didn't hear any flubs, either.

It is not. Well, classical, yes. Flubbed, no.

ahhhh the sigh-fi breath effect :) liking that effect more and more might start using the noise button some on the nova again.

The light bulb in the kitchen just blew out, seriously dag nabit LOL We can add to this I am sure... Maybe some Yes themed discord? to add to the Neo-Crimson progression textures.

my dad at one time helped with a radio show - if I remember correctly Tilden High School in Chicago had a radio transmitter. This would have come from there. My son traced this back to about 1923. My father tended to bring things home from where he worked, etc. He even brought home, as far as I could tell, the entire Data General railroad traffic controlling computer - vintage early 70's - the programs were loaded via punched paper tapes - when it got replaced. And no, it wasn't used on this piece. Ben has it. But at 1000 Hz he should be able to get it work if he feeds it the right kind of electricity.

OK, what's the story with the oscillator and did you use it on this piece?

Brilliant take on this classic!

most excellent!

Chris, I love your stuff. It's most elevating, to say the very least. Thank you.

Oh good Lord, I love this hymn.

Great orchestra there Chris. Ooo, I like the little bit of whistle at the end. Most unexpected.

Well played, I like the atmosphere, sort of reflective and bell like.

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!
