Building up parts of a song. The song is a classic rock remake with a diff  / mellow arrangement, so a classical bit is complementary. This is rough - timing/mix levels off (live track, no edits).

Looking for creative "feel" and ideas at this stage ("happy accidents" as one musician termed them). Using Vienna Symphonic Library played on a Kawai VPC1 "piano".  Bach is the inspiration, of course.

Amazing art by Marta Nael, entitled Winter Heart. Feel free to download this sample if you like.

Strings (sample)

Bach Arioso - Vienna Symphony Orchestra (VSL) solo strings. My first attempt at using the solo samples as a quintet. Much to learn, but happy with the more intimate and lovely sound of these VSL samples for this song, compared to the chamber strings. The music / notes for each instrument is from a downloaded MIDI file I transposed to the key of F. You are welcome to download my mix if you like. Enjoy!

For Sir Derek

The double bass (DB) line is taken from a Bach violin part, but the automatic mastering made it a bit too faint.
