    this is gorgeous. I'm listening on some crappy computer speakers so I can't really tell about the phasing.
    If you think there is a phasing issue, you could try freezing the track and summing to mono.

     A nice song fitting for a date. I didn't pick up on the strings sounding strange.

    I'll bet she was impressed!  How did the date go?  Nicely done orchestration.   I had a hard time understanding it because it was in French!  :-)  Oh, I didn't hear any strange phasing if that's what you're asking.

    This is a very haunting piece.  The orchestration was very well done, and the blending of textures works quite well.  I like the way the melody kept modulating throughout the piece which kept it interesting for me.  I heard no phasing issues, but I would have liked to hear the harp sample one octave higher, though, that's not very critical.  I can't wait to hear what you write for your next date.

    All the best,

    Hi Lynn
    Oh u thought it was haunting ?! I didnt hear this or feel it,but ok,we all hear differant things in music :) I'm glad u liked the piece,and liked the developement of the melody.Sometimes I try to find new ideas every step of the way and with this piece I thought I would try harder to use existing material,even if it was a simple placing the melody an octave higher at the end :) Its a good way,and I want to write more like this :))) I'll keep u posted with any new tunes I write,I feel very inspired at the minute,a little up in the clouds :) Its not a bad way at all !!!! Thank u for listening and your crit. I presume for the harp u r talking about the introduction ? Its true,its a little low,but I wanted the violin to project the highs when it first comes in.But yes,I understand what u mean,and thank u for taking time to listen and comment !

    So did you get some? Beautiful. Intro needs work, but the rest is wonderful.
