"I appreciate the kind words about my review. However, the only way I'm able to review and comment at the same time is if the composer is talented enough to write good, well-developed music. :) It's more a testament to your skill as a…"

"Yes I do like the counterpoint here Kjell, you've handled it well which is not easy to do. Your orchestration and dynamics are effective as well.  Your piece seems to sometimes cross over between classical and romantic in the effect which…"

"What a beauty. Instrumentation just wonderful creating a fascinating mood, like a landscape. No other instrument than your violin can create this, gorgeous performance, I can't distinguish it from real playing. I know there is a story behind…"

"Wow, what an effort you have made here, Jörfi. I appreciate that greatly. I have read your comment, or rather story, several times and it is such an experience to read about your impressions. I think your review is more impressive than the…"

"Thank you Jan-Frederik for your warm and inspiring words. Inertia is one of those words where the physics science influences the general language. I like that very much. I try here to also include it in the musical terminology. I think Ali might…"

"Thank you very much, Timothy. Glad you enjoyed it. Kjell"

"Hi Kjell, you have really a talent to compose music that one can listen to forever. It is so soothing you never want it to stop. I have only one small issue: the title. To my mind, the whole piece carries a certain feeling of restlessness which is…"

"Howdy, Kjell! This is my type-as-I-listen review of your piece. The title is intriguing, so I can't wait to give it a listen. Let's get to it... I like the academic statement by the strings at the very outset, classy and refined, yet…"

"I thought this was very well made. Enjoyed the listening experience."

"Thank you, Dane. Yours is the second remark on reverb so I need to explore it, trying something different. I use the standard GPO for "Standard Concert Hall", i.e. I haven't tried to adjust anything myself. But maybe I could try a…"

"I thought it was nice enough but flooded out by too much reverb.  All good, though."

"Forgot to mention that it surely depends on sound system. The effect I hear is only relevant for headphones. Using loudspeakers, both ears will hear the bass although everything comes from the right. Kjell"

"Very nice words, Michael. Thank you very much. It is like they enriches the piece through its poetic character. English is such a beautiful language when mastered in this way. Kjell"

"Wonderful stuff, Kjell. Great flow, very organic feel to it. It has your typical sound, which I would describe as mysterious, shaded in dark but not drab colors, and at times almost secretive, veiled. I'm not sure if that makes any sense, but…"

"This work I find really great. It is sort of total, it contains everything. It has melodies, rhythm, orchestra, solos. Very impressive work. Just one remark, probably personal: panning, why is it so extreme? Sometimes I hear e.g. the basses in one…"

"Delightful and relaxing piece, nicely played with a beautiful piano sound. It feels modern and therefore also innovative. I like that. Greetings, Kjell"
