Hi All,

This is the instrumental version of "Visiting Beautiful Kyoto". I replaced the Japanese vocal with the oboe and clarinet plays. The song was a Japanese song, but it now becomes an international song. I therefore changed its title as well.

https://soundcloud.com/hirokata1121/visiting-beautiful-city

I hope you like it.

*** Song Summary ***
First part (Strings):
Key=C, Tempo 80
Style: PNOMOOD2.STY (PianoMood2 -Gentle Soundtrack st)
Second part (Oboe and Clarinet):
Key=A, Tempo 80
Style: ARPORK34.STY (Orchestral arpeggio 3/4)

Sonar X3 was used for assignment of VSTi instruments to MIDI tracks and final tuning of the song.

I really like this - a very haunting melody... The oboe / clarinet are a great combination. Great work!

Very well done Hiroshik, another very well-balanced classical piece.
Actually, I am kind of curious how this would sound with vocals

Bob,

Thank you for your kind comment. I am glad you like my song. I am especially glad you like the oboe/clarinet combination. They are my favorite and I think they suit for this song very well.

Hello Hiroshi!

This is BEAUTIFUL! The melody flows so well with the rest of the song, and your choice of instruments is also very appropriate for the mood of the song !

I really enjoyed this! Thanks for posting!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
