Christian,

Very unique. I could almost envision the ensamble playing in a half circle.

As it is now, it sounds very close and intimate. If you add some large hall reverberation the piece will sound more like a performance.

Really pretty music!! As a film lover, I always listen for that potential, and I think this would be an excellent movie theme. Really nice!! Take care. Greg

Very nice arrangement and playing.
I agree that a little reverb on the
whole mix would give it more of
a live "sitting in the circle" feel.

Enjoyed it.

Excellent piece. Do you play the violin or cello as well?

I've always loved the sound of the ehru. Did a little search, and now, I've got one too! grin

Hi Bob,
I just play guitar.
Mini Ehru (like Mini Dizi) is an excellent free Vst.
Thanks for your words.
