This is a new song titled "Crystal Universe". A very beautiful song. Probably my best melody so far! https://soundcloud.com/hirokata1121/crystal-universeI wanted to make the accompaniment as simple as possible so that it does not spoil the melody, so I used just one MIDI style: ARPORK34.STY (Orchestral arpeggio 3/4). As usual, I used Sonar X3 to assign VSTi instruments to the MIDI tracks. The original style assigns Piano for the arpeggio play. I changed it from Piano to Strings Short Bow. I hope you like it.

When MIDI first entered the music scene I had high hopes that the tools it provided would lead to a renaissance of new classical compositions... but for the most part, that doesn't seem to have happened. However, this work of yours gives me hope that there are still some musicians out there who have the desire and skill to create enduring works of beauty. I like everything about this! Having spent quite a lot of time myself trying to get orchestral instruments to sound realistic, I am very impressed by the high quality of the overall composition. I'm a bit surprised that nobody has mentioned the similarities between certain passages of this song and the Christmas carol "It Came Upon A Midnight Clear" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWDc6ZswBdQExcellent job! I look forward to hearing more from you!

I look forward to hearing more from you! Hi Pat, Thank you very much for your comment. I am very impressed by what you mentioned. You pursue, with your significant energy, kind of revolution or renaissance of classical compositions. I think it is great effort. From that point of view, however, I have to say I am not the type of person who can make it happen at all. I just want to create beautiful songs not only of classical but also of pop, new age, and so on. If my work has given you any hope though, it is a great honor for me. Thank you also for pointing out the similarity between part of my melody and the Christmas carol "It Came Upon A Midnight Clear". I checked the youtube video you kindly showed the link to it, and I was very much surprised by their resemblance. I thought I do not know the song because I am not a Christian. To make sure, I have checked my music library to see if I have the song and listened to it, and found one! Now that it is clear I have listened to the song, the only thing I can say is there may be possibilities that my brain remembered its melody somehow and I was influenced by it unconsciously. I am sure the song is well known to so many people. If I noticed the resemblance, I could change that part of the melody. Lastly, I thank you again for your comment. I am glad you like my song anyway. Hiroshi
