Thanks Joe, If I remember rightly, I think I was one of the ones who requested the harp as an add for the RTs. Cello is also a wonderful RT for this kind of music as well

Graham,
Beautiful composition. Very interesting panning of two different harps (please correct me if I am wrong). Mixed very well.

Since you welcome comments, I will say it , instead of not saying it smile I would prefer to hear Anneli just a bit slower. You have a lot of going on in composition so if it is a little slower, it will give more time to listener to appreciate it. Just my 2 cents. Please do not take it against me.

Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Hi Misha and thanks again, my reason for not playing it slower is simple. The harp RT start to sound sick when played too slow. We DO need RT that can be played slower than 60 without distorting

Those landscapes picture on the video look like they are from Finland, thus this song sounds very homy to my ears smile Great playing and harps are nice addition. Nice tribute.

Dear friend Graham !

Me and my lady Li (Anneli)

by the dedication of this absolutely
wonderful highland sounding tune that
had us shed tears like small babies1

I hope to be able to return this
show of friendship by you in a similar
way - it may still take my time but
it´ll come I´m sure !:))

Hey Graham, please receive our
greatest thanks for this wonderful

Very beautiful track (and some nice pictures in the video).

Some of the motives in the melody reminded me a lot about "Auld Lang Syne", which is not a bad song to be compared with. smile

Very well done!
Will

Hiya Dani , and thanks so much. I'm delighted both of you enjoyed it so much. I always feel it's easier to compose a tune when you have a purpose to it same as I often compose better tunes in moments of sadness. More feeling goes into music in my own opinion anyway
