Wow! And I do mean wow! Very impressed, I loved it. One of my favorite pieces of music is Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring. You can see why I love your piece.

Thanks jmasno5.
Yes. It was my goal with this one to attempt something that hints at "Americana."
Copland is one of my favorite composers.

Very nice. A bit filmic, im seeing cartoons in my head. :)
Maybe a tiny bit more stereo width would be nice.

Great work. :)

Thank you!
Yea ... I think I was looking at it from the front row of the first balcony as opposed to the conductors position.
This one is done but I'll keep the width in mind for the next one.
Thanks for the observation.

Wow, that was really well done. The orchestration was dynamic, well placed, and everything just sounded... right.

And FWIW I think the title fits perfectly.

The only thing that could make this recording more authentic is to have the sound of some poultroon in the audience coughing during one of the more silent passages.

very, very enjoyable. panned like the real thing. imaginative and definitely keeps the interest.
