"Was the score written with Notion? The style looks familiar to me. It seems pretty much OK to work with, although conductors prefer grouped notations to minimize the full score.

"Jos,
The hard work has payed off here. Excellent work! I love the changes in theme almost at the drop of a hat. You are quite good at both composition and mixing. I would have a tough time staying with a project this long mainly due to time…"
"Hi Timothy,
Thanks for the additional information. I've never seen such an plugin before. The things I regularly use are: MIR Pro (Vienna), The Vienna Suite with Power Pan (for horizontal and vertical position), Virtual Sound Stage (2) and…"
"Hi William,
Allow me to congratulate you with the concerto and not in the least with the fabulous performance of the sax player. The excellent recording and mix make it a complete success! The 3 parts have some solemnity and religious feel, like a…"
"Really beautiful and well done."
"Hi Jos,
Great information! Thanks. This means it can be done.
I have to think about it again.
Ali"
"Thanks Robert and Ali for listening and commenting.
Ali: It's indeed a one man's team...
Robert: The scoring stage is the 'Opera Hall' of VSS2; instruments are all VSL.
The composing time was about 3 weeks; the midi programming…"
"Hi Jos,
Congratulations. Gorgeous work.
I won't make any technical comments as this is a fully professional work.
I wonder if you have done this alone? The video part is also seamless
and very rich. Or was this the work…"
"That is a most delicious piece of music! I've never heard it and it is a real revelation! I even didn't know that Schoenberg composed such delightful tonal music.
Thousand times thank you for bringing this marvel to us!
Jos"
"Ok, I really enjoyed this. Just lovely. Each variation holds interest, and the piece is a great listen from start to finish. In particular, I like your use of woodwinds (something I'm still trying to get a good handle on in my own music), and…"
Pierlala Again... Tribute to a free mind
This is a score for extended symphonic orchestra.There is an explanation for the title on Youtube. The main theme is a popular tune that appears for the first time in the 12th century. Every new appearance has other lyrics, but the tune is more or less the same. My Pierlala character is situated in the 18th and 19th century. His rebirth has to do with the French occupation of my country and the Brabant Revolution (1830) that ended in the beginning of the new state Belgium.See More
"Hi Rob,
Excellent cinematic work, both themes. The building up is perfect and the recordings are just superb!
Although the mix is rather technical and not so natural, the feel is perfect. I don't mean that as a point of criticism, only a…"
"Hi Timothy,
With interest I've listened to your piece. It is somewhat unusual to my classical ears (as to music, but also as to orchestral seatings, use of the playing 'space'). That's probably because you don't use a DAW to…"
"Thanks George, but I can choose another dance piece or make a reduction of the Balletto. As far as I remember, I've made a Passepied some time ago. That takes about 2'.
I'm pretty new to this forum and I don't know anything…"
"Hello Gav,
I would like to submit my "Balletto dell'Asino", but unfortunately it has a 9 minutes duration... Even one part would take more than 2 minutes...

Hi Jos,
It’s fastlane(Phil) from the defunct Garritan forum. I’m glad to see you on here. I became a member years ago but I haven’t been active for some time. The prodigal son returns I guess. :)
