This is the theme song for a mythical television series about the students, faculty and community in and around a very traditional old world-style university. It is a dramedy, lol.
 
Seriously, this song started out very different, except for the "chorus" starting at 0:55, which has remained more or less the same in all of the versions that came before. The instruments have changed many times. This version "stuck" and really felt right.

Hope you enjoy and if you have any questions or feedback, I'll take 'em!

I really really really like this! Nice pulsation going on in there.....then when it all kicks in....Aaaaaahhhh!!!!

I love cellos, it is one of my favorite instruments. When it comes to the strings, they're all just different sized versions of the same thing? From the Violin to the Viola, to the Cello, to the Bass. But something about the cello to me says "this is what they made this design for..." The others are all cool too. 
 
Really nice saxamaphones too. How did you do the saxes? What SW was used to build all of this? It sounds really "really" good, well conceived, and well put together. Something to be proud of here Dan.

The sax is Embertone's Sensual Sax. It is extremely playable for these kinds of parts. Orchestral pieces are a mix of EWQLSO, JV2080 and Garritan Instant Orchestra; mostly in that order as far as number of parts. I really, really like EWQLSO. The rest of the parts are a mix of JV2080, Korg Triton and Omnisphere, along with my guitar and bass.

Thanks Scotty! I really "felt" it when I was working on the buildup at the end.

Well it's put together masterfully.
 
I play samplemodeling (http://www.samplemodeling.com/en/index.php) Their stuff is like a fun night with your favorite actress (and I do mean a fun night...) But that Embertone part stood out to me and sounded good, and it's cheap!
