Richard Wagner / Lohengrin-Prelude (Act I) - all VSL (strings are DS, Solo and Orchestral Strings)

Interview with Amy Wilson - Atlanta Philharmonic Orchestra

It was December 1970, the bicentennial of Beethoven's birth and my Junior High band director, Goldie Marrs brought in a birthday cake for the occasion. I asked her if the theme from NBC's "Huntley Brinkley Report" was by Beethoven. She did some research and reported back that it was indeed Beethoven and it was the second movement of his Ninth Symphony.
The following year, my Grandparents gave me an LP of the symphony performed by Eugene Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra (I still have the vinyl). That was my introduction to classical music and a lifetime of pure enjoyment.

This recording is another test track that I hope to complete some day utilizing Notion software along with sampled orchestral instruments from the Vienna Symphonic Library.

I'd like to thank both Goldie and Donald Marrs for encouraging my appreciation of classical music!

Recently starting watching "Mozart in the Jungle" and noticed this movement of the Beethoven 9th partially shows up within the first five minutes of the pilot episode (unfortunately not my performance).

Beethoven-Happy Birthday

Have always wanted to conduct an orchestra. Had my chance during a soloist competition in college as a freshman and made it past the first round, sadly not the second.

The next best thing to conducting an orchestra is to acquire DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) some MIDI software and sampled orchestral instruments. The sampled orchestral instruments used are from the Vienna Symphonic Library.

This time-consuming process requires the performance of each instrument and part, one by one and usually by phrase or phrases, so we're looking at a minimum orchestra example of of about 16 parts.

Whenever I get some free time, I'll devote several hours at a time to lay down and clean up tracks.  Hopefully will have more completed works as the years go by.

Enjoy!
