    Hi Gus, very nice composition, especially from 2:30 onwards.  I keep expecting a blistering guitar solo looking at your avatar; ) Good job, I enjoyed the listen.

    Thanks Rik.
    I'll keep you on your toes. One day there might be a gt solo, but for now its a violin one. Glad you liked it.

    Good, smooth composition that builds nicely. I really like the change at 0:50. If you played an actual violin on this I tip my hat to you.

    I enjoyed that very pleasant and nicely done, can I ask as to what orchestral source you used?

    Thanks Sean,
     I don't play the violin, I've tried and only got a scratchy sound out of it. I guess I must have got things right if it sounds real.
     
    Hello John,
     Thanks for keeping an eye on me. I've used Dim Pro on all of my pieces so far and this is no exception. One day I'll get EastWest.

    Well, this would be a good track for a film or something.  It left me waiting for something else to come in as a "musical listening tune" but as a track behind a movie or something it is very nicely done.

    Very nice.    Good job articulating the strings.

    You misspelled Nectarine... The cellos would sound better a bit more butter legato in the intro IMO? (i.e., less defined) I like your piece. The orchestra is "non-trivial..." Most people have no idea. 
     
    I really enjoyed this, good job.

    Thanks for checking it out. I've reworked the whole piece adding butter. I need rest now!

    Sound very good and well balanced with the instrumentation. The mix is good and I would rest as well.

    I am sorry but this didn't appeal to me at all - the strings was to high and to plastic in my ears though the harmonies worked all right. Maybe you should lower the string sound and work out a better bottom then it will work...?

    Thanks for taking some time on this piece.
    I must admit that I'm not overly happy with this yet. I think I spent too long in the small hours fighting with it. Agree some of the samples aren't right.
    Might have to start from scratch.
