This one is a folkish, peaceful kantele song with piccolo and celtic flute leads and distant loons on a lake shore.

I wrote this adventurous track as a demo for Musical Sampling's debut sample library, "Soaring Strings," which has won a spot in my template due to it's ease of use, solid sound, and the most fluid, agile legatos I've ever used. Programming and performing with this library is remarkably easy--there are a few spots in this track where the melody line remains almost untouched since my first pass at inputting it via keyboard and modwheel. With a ridiculously low retail price of $249 (and an introductory price of $199) this library demands a look: http://www.musicalsampling.com/soaring-strings/

Also used in this piece:

Berlin Woodwinds Main and Ex B
Berlin Percussion
Metropolis Ark 1 (choirs + brass)
Cinebrass Core 
CinePerc Core (timpani)
Hollywood Brass (6horns legato)
Spitfire Harp

Commanding the Fleet (Soaring Strings Demo)

Written as a contextual product demo for "Mercury Grand".

This track is inspired by the feelings I experienced when practising piano as a child. Imagination running wild, dreaming that my fingers were producing a sound beyond...
