Fanfare for the comping man (and woman)

I really really like this.

This is great! Really well arranged.

I really really like this.

I glad you do! Thanks for listening!

Nice samples. Lots of repetition. Sounds like my Yamaha Motif.

PiBoy
Now with Star Wars coming is almost like it.
Sounds great!

Shine On!

Thanks for listening and comment! The new Star Wars movie will be great, no matter how bad it is.

Nice samples. Lots of repetition. Sounds like my Yamaha Motif.

Thanks for your input! You are right about the repetition, it would have needed something more to variate the first part, not just changed and added melody instruments. I can't say I know how your Motif sounds, but I guess I need to add more variated expression on every instrument part in the future then.

String Jammer
No No No! Your instrument parts sound fine! I just mean that my Motif has some great orchestral sounds as well.

Ah, I see!
Well, as a matter of fact, my old Roland JV-2080 has some really nice, warm orchestral sounds though it is from 1997. The harp there I think is almost as good as the EW. But... it's easier to process the sounds when you have them as a plugin.

Great stuff Lasse.
It makes me think of an old British movie - very pomp and circumstance.

Me too, it's a really charming piece, gives me a great Sunday afternoon movie feeling. Excellent work.

Thanks James, appreciated!

Beagle
this is very nice!  lots of work in an orchestral piece!
 
no crits at all, just praise!  good work!

Thank you Beagle for listening and praising! I can take no crits!

I agree with Daryk, it pumps the circumference. 
 
Just curious, did you have to do much editing from the original MIDI?
 

A bit of smoothening up and shorten some of the notes, I added expression and in some parts modulation (when the wheel adds vibrato or horn swell f.e.). I also had to adjust the velocity, it was uneven with the new sounds.
 
Some of the editing had to be done because of a sloppy original, though. :P

Thanks for listening, Pete. I'm glad you liked it.

That was nice!    Very proper British orchestral music.    It may be an old MIDI file, but it sounds to me like you nailed it.  I'm guessing you notice a difference with the new library?
 

Thanks Steve! Yes, big difference indeed. In 2003 I used sounds 100% from my Roland JV-2080, and it got some varm, nice sounds as well, but the attack was not very realistic. I still have it plugged-in, but rarely use it nowadays.

Well I can't get any of those sounds out of my old Roland Juno-106. :)  This is a really great composition. Nothing but praise here as well .....
 

Very cool piece of composing and orchestrating here. Nicely done

They are all gathered. The hero is being awarded a medal. Lots of satisfied looks all around, and nods of approval.
 
Very nice, good tools in good hands I'd say. Well done! Nothing here that is short of something you'd hear in a theater. Or, in a theatre.
 
cheers,

Thanks Tom for the theatric glimpse! Not so strange perhaps that the coronation music from Star Wars IV is one of my favourites.

Tap
Well I can't get any of those sounds out of my old Roland Juno-106. :)  This is a really great composition. Nothing but praise here as well .....

 Thank you, Tap! I'm glad you liked it. Maybe not the sounds for this on the Juno-106, but if you sold it you would get much more for it than my JV-2080...

biodiode
This sounded excellent, has a nice broad use of the strings. I could see this fitting in with the end credits of a movie.
Great stuff.

Thanks for listening, biodiode! Interesting that several of you thinks this as an end theme. I thought of it as an introduction theme initially, but... you're right, it would work fine as an end theme as well.

Thanks Gus for commenting and listening!

Whoa!
 
I'm seeing the troops returning victorious.  Marching under the arch to the adulation of the crowds.
 
At 1:14 we see an adoring Mother wave to her son as he marches by.  His girlfriend bolts from the crowd and embraces him, very nearly disrupting the entire parade.  He gives her a kiss, pushes her away, and the march continues. 
 
That's what I saw in my mind
 
Very Cool

Lol very detailed scenery there, Jesse! The only thing to do now is to find that movie script and give the director a call, then!
