hi Chris,, soundwise/music interesting,,, i sometimes feel like a tourist in your world of music,, not sure i get it all, but i do know that at some level it helps me to appreciate both my own way and the bigger picture of musical sounds in new ways,,, have a happy 4th R

Nicely done.

Nice one mate great job.

Wild mix mate very cool.

Very very nice!!!

Agree with Norm - and this is a great song that's new to me. Lovely.

Oh man! Arranged like a Bond theme! Bold, bright and brilliant!

Raw blues - love this kind of thing. Am now going to analyse the crap out of your improvised lyrics! :D

Great sound!

The parts around 2.12 are completely uplifting - great stuff!

Perfect title - great conceptualisation. Check out me and my long woooooooooooooooooooords.

Well done. I love the synth work.

interesting,, not sure exactly what i think about it, but it's always neat to hear your musical thoughts

I like your spare take on this!

wild tones...duel survival.

Well that was interesting....like!

it is close what if the split octave for one horn is say half a tone above the 13 tones used by the other horn is that dissonance or something more diabolical like I don't know we would have to listen to something like that to know. :) This peace is just great but I am all over the french horn sound that and long string harmonics.

Very smooth! Enjoyed the distinct parts.

Sweet sweet collab.

reminds me of the day the notice came. "We are sorry, we will no longer be providing news servers" I miss the news groups.

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.
