Thanx Scott I appreciate your kind words.

Hi Mario,

This is a beautiful duet between flute and saxophone.
An exciting combination, but super successful!
And the melody itself is just lovely.
Yes, I like it very much!
While typing this post your song is on my headphones for the 3rd time.
I think I can hum with the flute now...

This is a nice piece of work. Your getting quite adept with the breath controlled wind/brass.

Nice listen on this rainy Friday morning.

Thanx Herb. I'm still a rookie on using the breath controller but I am learning.......very slowly I might add!

Very pleasant tune, has a nice romantic flavor. Great playing the sax & flute, the sax sounds like a gentle lion and the flute like the first butterfly of Spring. Sweet melody and relaxing chord progression, dreamy arrangement. I like the effect of departing and coming back together. Your music is always easy to listen to and it always helps to forget the chaotic world around.

Thanx so much Janne. I'm glad that you liked it and helped you forget today's chaotic world, at least for a couple of minutes.

One thing I have learned from dog training is that even a small improvement is still an improvement. Stay the course.

This is a truly lovely opus, Mario.


Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

SO beautifully melodious, accessible to the ear (what's the point, otherwise? smile ), and storytelling. You are getting even better and even better with each track. I honestly can't find anything to criticise ... well, one thing which is not your fault: those cymbals, lol (someone mentioned them, too, I think). But that's neither here nor there. The rest is superb. The way you play those solo instruments is truly emotional and beautiful. Well done, Mario.

Thanx so much James. I mentioned that I couldn't get at my good drum VSTis, computer issue, so I used an old Garritan drum kit which obviously was not as good as my other drum VSTis.
