A tune I've composed for two of the forums much loved members. Alan & Diana. I was really sad when I read Alans' last post re Diana so I felt compelled to compose a tune to offer my own thoughts and comfort. It's entitled Dianas' Journey with the wind. Alan, I'm sure will explain the choice of title better than I can. NO real tracks used this time as they simply can't cater for this slow style of ballad. MIDI SuperTracks in song: 2089:Piano, Solo-Accompaniment PopBalladJohn Ev 110 2058:Strings, Rhythm CelticAir Ev 085 I layered the strings a few times in reason 10 and also used one of reason choir sounds as well as female soprano. I also used reason 10 for the melody strings and harmony flute. Al & Di, take care guys Dianas' journey with the wind

Graham,
Diana and I just listened and watched. She's smiling with tears on her cheeks. This is just so beautiful. What a gorgeous song! You have no idea how much she (and I) appreciate the thoughtfulness, time, effort and care you gave this gorgeous song. Thank you so very much, mate. You're the best.
Di sends her best wishes and a big hug. We are humbled.
Alan & Di
PS: Regarding the title -
Graham PM'd me and said he was working on a song for Diana and asked what kind of music she liked. He offered this and she loved it, as did I. He then asked what would be an appropriate title. I explained it as follows:
Di has often said that life is much like a leaf in a the wind. It's journey will pass through both good and bad times, calm and gentle or stormy and wild, fully at the mercy of direction of the wind. For Di, the wind symbolizes her faith in God and the leaf symbolizes her, as she is guided through whatever her Maker has in store for her. Thus the title.
Di is fairly stable at the time - looking forward to our move into the assisted living facility. We'll be moving in on the 15th of march. It will be a huge adjustment but it is the best option to keep her as healthy as possible. So, we are okay with it.
She and I send ou humble appreciation to all of you - your kindness and caring is sincerely touching and makes a difference - really. many thanks! I may get a chance to drop in for a while this evening and listen to a few songs - hope so!
Alan & Di

Very nice - it captures a wide feeling of space, along with melancholy.

Graham,
This presentation of music and video is really beautiful. The sound of peace and calm that you've captured is like drifting along on a slow moving river on a warm, blue-sky spring day. It's a perfect way to celebrate Alan and Di. We're very fortunate to have them as part of our forum family.
Regards,
Noel

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.
