"Hi Ivor: Thank you for your enthusiatic response to my music. Thanks as well for your comments regarding the MIDI render. One of my goals for this piece was to get better on the production side of the creative process. It feels like I spent…"
"Certainly seems to reflect current evenets: morose, endlessly but quietly marching forward. Good rendering and some clever doubling of the thematic content.
Easy to listen to."

" A most accomplished piece and frankly the mood of night was immediate to me. Unseen things stirring. Great string sound and rendering. This could pass as a live performance on a recording. There were just moment when things were VERY quiet that…"
"just in case anyone's interested, I invested in the new VSL violin and cello and have redone the rendering (though the viola has not yet been released so remains the same). I feel the rendering -- despite some things still be looked at -- now sounds…"
"interesting that this passage from 5'46" was an afterthought. Certainly a very nice one!

"Hi David: Thanks so much for listening and your very kind remarks. The material beginnig at 5'46" was actually a late addition to the piece. It felt like there was a hole there that needed to be filled. I'm delighted that it spoke to you. "
" every time you manage to produce something quite different so I always look forward to a new work of yours. I'm not sure it was particularly to my taste earlier on but the haunting atmosphere from 5'46" started to grip me around mid way through and…"

Well actually, you can already see some of this in the given example, you just…"

"If starting a movement is the hardest thing, perhaps that's where an application of some of Mike's methods might give you a jumpstart by generating ideas that are derived from some underlying motif or theme in your work, so that the result will have…"

"Ah, I was wondering what this strange CoPilot thing I see on my new Windows 11. Now I know! Anyway, your long reply to HS does show how different out methods are. I don't generally try out lots of things, I simply have an instinct on how to proceed…"
"David, thinking further about my and especially the canons inability to convince you re technique in composition, I turned to AI CoPilot and asked a couple of questions. Here below is what it came back with. Now you might not consider AI as…"
"No worries David and I believe you have real talent but if the canon and great masters can't convince you then I'll shut up. Read my long post below and see if it gives you any more insight into the relationship between technique and composition as…"
