Have Fun !

Bellissimo.

Gianfranco,

This is quality music. I love it. The trombone and trumpet are such great choices to sit on top of the stride piano. The mix sounds excellent.

Regards,
Noel

P.S. I also had a listen to your computer singing "Imagine" on Youtube. That's pretty incredible!

Thank you very much indeed, pleasure to meet you.

Hey,

I really enjoyed this. This mix is excellent. Very pleasing to the ears!!

I enjoyed this a lot. Very professional mix and arrangement.

Charlie

Gianfranco, thanks for posting this. I really enjoyed this piece, and very different from the other postings.

Thissong transported me to a smoky bar sceene, with the idea that some intrigue was happening.

I think I would have liked it even better if the the trombone were brought up a little more in the mix, but otherwise, excellent.

Thank you to all for yours nice words and for yours beautiful feedback, i'd like to write more and more , but from Italy this forum is often inacessible.
What a pity, i hope it's a temporary problem.

Hi gianfranco
I do hope you are able to submit more of this type of music (even if the forum is not accessible from Italy!)

Enjoyed it very much

Nice smooth laid back touch going there. Piano bar of old. I can smell the smoke.

Gianfranco,

This definitely is a well-balanced and good sounding mix!
Well done.

Rob

Ciao, Gianfranco

Very relaxing and pleasant!
As Noel said, I also think the trombone and trumpet are such great choices to sit on top of the stride piano.
Very enjoyable listen.

Best Regards.

P.S.
I also had a listen to your computer singing "I will always love you" on Youtube. That's fine!
By the way, I also often make vocaloid songs.
Following link is my newest post of vocaloid song.

I have listened your Vocaloid song with Miku.
As i wrote in Soundcloud, it's a beautiful work under all
points of view, beautiful composition, excellent sound, Miku's voice tuning is perfect.
I am without words!

Gianfranco,

This is a beautiful composition and a very enjoyable, laid back listen.

By the way, I enjoyed your Sweet Ann version of I Want To Know What Love Is!
