A celtic/orchestral song that I had a lot of fun with.

Yes, I enjoyed!
Dan, I love Celtic music. My grandpa was a pretty good Scottish fiddler and played us many a reel and jig with one or the other of his children chording along on the piano. 
Your music is more sweepingly grand, broader, more sophisticated and romantic than Grandpa's simple tunes, but that sweet basis, that drone and stretch up, that sob in the sound is in there so authentically that it immediately transported me back in time to one of the sweetest times of my life - when I was a child and Grandpa was playing. 
Thank you for that!

My wife and I enjoyed it very much. It sounded fantastic on my head phones.The fun you had making it translates and transcends throughout the entire song. Excellent work.

Dear dcumpian checked out "The Forest Queen" this morning with first cup of coffee and cigarette while waking up and looking at the woods behind my yard. Wow! What a treat. Very well done. I'm impressed. Thank-you.
 

 

 

Yes, this is absolutely beautiful.  Listened on headphones and it is striking how perfectly formed it is in every way: song construction, melody, harmony, mix, everything.  Masterful.

i was thinking this but you summed it up perfectly. anyone from James Horner to Arcana to Enya to Cradle of Filth would love to write this.

Dan - this is just gorgeous man - your talent is just inspiring. This really makes my brain feel good. Your playing is so nice and the mix on this is perfect.
 
You and Stringjammer should collaborate on a tune - that would be something to hear.

You are really good. The song was great again. The melodies were uplifting and played well.
