Its mainly BIAB MIDI In Classical Style. I used with thanks Spitfire Audio "Free" VSTi for the most part with Arturia making up most of the end of the song. This is the link to LABS and fair play to them for producing and giving away such great sounding virtual instruments https://www.spitfireaudio.com/labs/ I mixed it in Reaper and mastered it with OZONE 8
I hope this song lifts you up to an elevated position !enjoy Hugh

Hi all, Thanks for taking the time to have a listen, Ambient ,building ,cinematic ,floaty is what I hoped it would be,so great to hear you liked it.Ray I guess modern classical is a complete contradiction in terms lol ! I was constantly thinking of it getting higher and higher and I was also trying to measure the audience interest level ,trying to bring something new along every few bars. Would like to buy Spitfire in the future ,Thanks again Hugh
FANTASTIC job on this Hugh. My kinda music. Wonderfully layered. It really would make a superb soundtrack for a fantasy style movie or even video game like Skyrim. Want more
Hi all, ...Ray I guess modern classical is a complete contradiction in terms lol ! ...
No, not really - there is a huge amount of work out there in the classical frame made in the 20th & 21st centuries. The term covers a massive range of styles, structures, orchestra types etc. and you could pprobably pop yourself into it but orchestral ambient is what it is - more or less. This is a snippet of my current favourite "modern classical"

Hi all and thanks again for your comments and really happy you enjoyed. Ray thats a heavy piece ,I looked it up and the associated poem .Thanks for the understanding.Scheonberg caused a stir at the time according to the article. Hugh
Pretty tune!! Very ethereal sounds and music. Could imagine a dramatic sunrise image or something in a film, or an underwater scene. Well put together Hugh!! Take care. Greg
Wow - this is gorgeous Definitely has a cinematic feeling to it. I can imagine it definitely sounding right in place as part of a movie soundtrack. It is calming and epic and pretty all at the same time. The ebb and flow of it fantastic.
