Chris, sorry I took so long to get to this! On first listening, I wondered whether having a harp and a piano was perhaps a bit redundant? At times I quite like the blend of timbres, but I feel overall it would work better with one or the other, an...

Technically i do not like the hard left and right panning ( especially on cans) it makes the ...
Thanks guys
appreciated :)
Very nice!
Perfect for an overcast Sunday Afternoon!. Good sounding recording as well. Must be nice to have the Wife on hand for recording such things. Makes me want to record a guitar quartet.
Nice, Reminds me of Ernest Bloch's masterful "Schelomo" for cello and orchestra. That's good company to be in.
A short piece that I wrote yesterday. We have recorded a fairly rough version today. Still a few kinks to work out but I thought you guys might want to give it a whirl. Cellos played my wife Deryn.

Thanks for that :)
Well, the stage samples sound wonderful and I think you've used them very well. Overall a nicely crafted, well balanced piece which does exactly what it says on the tin. I think it's fair to say that writing something in a very particular style an...

You've got a nice selection of music up here. I especially like your Concerto for Strings in D Cullen. :-). Sorry I couldn't resist it.
It would be great played by real strings. The violin sound is grainy and washing in reverb but I know the difficulties with vsti's.
I'll have a listen to some more later.

- No i didn't get a chance. I got an email saying you did, but it looks like Ray raped my post and locked it (or something... Not sure) but I'd love to hear what you have to say, I need all the practice I can get.
