    This sounds great Jerry! Wonderful job. Did you play/arrange all the instruments?
    It's all very well done.

    I sequenced the music in Sonar using the notation editor and a mouse.   No playing this time, not even percussion.  Whether I play it in or sequence it, I still have to do a lot of editing in the event list, adding program and controller changes, in other words, articulations and phrase-shaping.
     
    Glad you enjoyed listening!

    Very impressive.  Very close to real sounding.  It must've taken you a great deal of time to put this together.

    It takes me about 2-3 years to finish a 4-movement symphonic work for virtual instruments.  It would take about half that time if I were simply notating the score for live players and not programming a computer to play it.
     
    I do teach online (composition, theory, electronic music production, MIDI sequencing and virtual orchestration).

    Very nice work Jerry.
    Interesting addition of synths to the orchestra.
