The Promise of Spring

This is a new piece I made for string orchestra, done in EW Strings and some real violin overdubs. EW Spaces for reverb.
 
Hope you like it! Feel free to comment, but no - there will be no epic drums added...

Hello Sir,
 
Yes, I like this very much.
The name of the piece certainly matches the content.
 
Right off I had visions of a graduation scene, or a nuptial.  It is certainly very processional, to me.  This could easily be used for any of those occurrences.  The piece is consistent, has meaningful content, and emotes a feeling of accomplishment and promise.
 
I very much appreciate the fact that you played some live violin.  In a forum rife with nimble guitar practitioners, it is refreshing to hear an artist play a violin.
 
That was nice, I wish you the best in creating more pieces that render unto the listener the feeling you imbue.

Needs epic drums.......joking.

Love it Lasse. Very memorable theme throughout and expertly composed.
Nice one mate.

Thanks Jesse for your thorough reply! I also can see the ceremonial picture. Glad you liked the violin play. I have a draft for a String orchestra suite where this one is the last of three parts, so maybe more will come later.

I liked it very much. I like to have strings in my songs as well.
This music could be in a family drama film easily!
Nicely done!

Smooth and calming......thx for sharing....however
....a tad more cowbell would have put it over the top  ;o)

Nice depth to the mix the basses are just making the room rumble in a pleasant way good stuff.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Wookie! Actually the basses were the thing I tweaked most in the end of mixing. Nice  to hear it came out good.

Purdy!!!

That was very nice...    It's so hard to pick out the real violin from the EW strings, so kudos there!   I also agree with Jesse that it has a strong processional or ceremonial feel to it, yet it doesn't come across as cliched at all, not easy to do.
