"Thanks Fernando. I hadn't thought of it as a piano piece. It was for a short film that basically needed a "running" feel through a forest, with a little bit of doom on your heels. The piano did come first, however. I love…"

"Deborah, you have a wonderful voice. I especially love "Elated". The arrangement is quite effective and supports your voice quite well. It was a pleasure to hear your music."

"American Songs... Very pretty... Very uplifting... Visual... What are you using for samples? I would recommend something from East West that would live up to this beautiful piece of music."

Your music is very impressive and inspiring. I like the wide variety of styles and instrumentation you use. It sounds as though a lot of your instruments are recorded live (the guitar on Requiem, and the cello on Waltzing Medusi in particular)? Also, I'm utterly in love with the piano melody on "Whirling Devils"!

Thanks, Colin. My challenge now is to learn production (at least well enough to attract potential collaborators). I'm working on instrumentals right now. Trying to make sense of production basics (compression, EQ, limiters, levels--everything!). At first, I backed off from production as scary. Now I'm come to see it as another part of my art.

I'm listening to Kamilla's Wheels... Did you compose this for a game? For animated film? I like it.

Colin,

Thank you for your gracious words.

Technically, I'm a neanderthal. I have virtually no skill at things electronic. Kindly Richard Schletty of this forum made an MP 3 of the music, composed on Sibelius 5 and Garittan, so that it sounded a little more realistic. I find writing so difficult that I don't have time to learn the technical parts of sound reproduction , and still have time to drink heavily every day. A man's got to have priorities.

Thanks again Colin
