Thanks jamesg123.
Thanks Wookiee. I used Vienna Instruments inside Vienna Ensemble Pro and MIR.
Thanks Rikkie.
Thanks Leizer. This took me several months to compose and then several days to make a satisfactory mix.

I can't believe this lasted as long as it did. That's the mark of a good arrangement. It takes quite a bit of skill to orchestrate strings in a believable tune when using samples, but you pulled it off very well. Superb!

Wow, this sounds great! Perfect chart for a suspenseful or horror movie, and it's obvious that you put a lot of work into it. Really enjoyed listening and I like the string sound - this would be a nice advertisement for Vienna Instruments because now I think I need them.  Keep up the good work.

Marko,
Really well done, interesting throughout. The samples are very realistic but I am sure your months of programming has something to do with the quality as well;) Listened to all 9:26. Thanks for posting.

Hey Marco -
I think it started out fantastic and you used different samples and rhythmic textures very well to make it interesting, Somewhere around 5/8ths of the way through it started sounding repetitive to me, and almost like playing the parts at the same time on a keyboard with really good samples.
If this was used for a suspenseful film sequence it would work great. The constant rhythm would keep the feel without distracting the audience away. So, my comment about repetition is only my opinion, from listening to it on it's own, I like the ideas, articulations and variation in your samples and rhythms. I guess if it wasn't for that one repeating section I would love the whole thing!
Good work

Nicely done and very long, but interesting movements and articulations. I like the samples and the way you used them and their variations of usage throughout the piece. Very nicely done.
