Hi TM,

Thanks for your nice reply.
May be you've read what I said about the violin in my later reply, but if not, here's the explanation:

"The instrument that accompanies the entrance of the white horse, is the Loop Arabian Ceremony.
I wanted to "give" that horse an instrument of its own, to indicate that this is a special horse, the guide that is told about earlier, that will take you to a place that "looks\feels like" Eden.
It had to be clear, even if you didn't see the video, that something extraordinary is happening."

Hoi Anne-Marie en Rob,

A very wonderful song you made. I felt goosebumps on my arms and a shiver going down my spine from the emotion in the song (don't know if this is proper English, but who cares).
What a nice melody. Excellent is the word in Charlies' post, but also what came in my head.
Both your vocals sound very, very nice in this -slightly Irish-sounding song.
Really nice!

And I love that video with all the horses.

Still with a smile on my face because of this song,
Hans
(Heb genoten!)

Beautiful lyrics and together with the nice video really shows the space to be free without fences.
Nice folky instrumentation, sort of medieval mood from the British Isles. I like the violin, it sounds like horses neighing.
Excellent vocals, always pleasure to hear your voices.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Rob and Anne-Marie,

Beautiful Folk Waltz!
I was impressed with that the vocals of both of you are really well harmonized.
The video also matches the music very well.
It's a very sophisticated piece.
Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot.

Best regards.

I liked everything about the arrangement except the solo violin...perhaps it adds a little gypsy wildness,though, so will have another listen.
Beautiful images on the video.

Great!
My only minor complaint is the violin solo, it doesn't feel like it's part of the band. But that's just a minor nit in a great arrangement.


Thanks Robert and BD.

And about the violin:
The instrument that accompanies the entrance of the white horse, is the Loop Arabian Ceremony.
I wanted to "give" that horse an instrument of its own, to indicate that this is a special horse, the guide that is told about earlier, that will take you to a place that "looks\feels like" Eden.
