You know, now that I myself read it back again, his original post
doesn't actually specify genre after all, you are quite right!

I guess I must have deduced "classical" because of the list of instruments he did mention and the 'no fx' restrictions (both of which seem to indicate a "go for natural/acoustic" intentions).
I still don't get why he didn't just go for a "What VSTi would you recommend/use?" kind of post
