Midnight Waltz

You are barefoot on the beach with the waves slowing rolling to the shore and the full moon's glow reflecting off the water. You are dancing with the love of your life, however there is no music, only the music in your hearts.

In reality I am just trying to learn how to modify the BiaB string track and write my own string tracks.

BiaB styoe - Borrum MIDI Celtic Pop Waltz
Tempo = 58 Bpm

Bass - Kontakt - Amadeus - preset - basses
Strings - modified - Kontakt - Amadeus - preset - full strings - Piano - FM8 - preset - Soft E Piano
Guuitar - Kontakt - Glissando Harp
Utility track - Velvet E

Me - via my wind controller the Swam classical flute
My Jay Turser Jzz box guitar
I wrote the string lead lines.

As always all comments are welcomed.


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

I'd like to classify this as very classy where I'd need to spend many a day in the classroom to approximate such a classical piece. smile
I can definately feel the moon's glow on the shoreline.

Well done; especially the strings.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

A beautifully relaxing piece, Mario.
I love your SoundCloud blurb. I guess we're just ancient romantics! laugh

The kind of tune we'd like to hear more of on the nature shows we watch.

Classy and cool.

You're on a roll ... fine performances and mix.

Nicely mellow!

Thanx Bud and Janice for listening and commenting on my little tune. Musically I have mellowed out over the years, i.e. from Wild Thing in my teens to this!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hi Mario,

What a nice melody and, like some others here, I think your description with your bare feet in the sand, the moon, the stars an a loved one...
well, that is so easy to imagine with your song.

And furtermore about the title, I was expecting a 3/4 waltz with a great orchestra, but you did just the opposite.
Like that flute very much!

Love it Mario. One of my favorite artist is Nicolas Gunn and very excellent flutist. So a little flute over strings with some J guitar is relaxing.

No-one can get even close to you with this stuff. Musicianship to burn. A stunningly beautiful track. One of your best.

Loved (amongst many other details) the chord progression around 3:50. Wow.
