This track was written as a test and demo to the recently released BBC Symphony Orchestra Discover sample library by Spitfire Audio. A truely powerful and accessible sound library, the plugin works with all major DAWs and is a mere 200MB in size, making professional DAW composition on the go a reality. 

The Green Vale, named after the work's cheery note and the BBC SO's recording home, Maida Vale Studios, works to present all instruments with nearly all articulations available, to give you the best understanding of the capabilities of this sample library. Using idiosyncratic film score tropes and light to heavy textural layers, the library has an unmistakable music for film quality that takes barely any effort to produce. While it produces this feeling almost immediately, it is still possible to produce a wide range of emotions and textures that can lend its hand to most of what you throw at it. At the time of posting, this library is only USD$49 or free with a brief questionnaire from Spitfire Audio.

Written and recorded in 2020.
