Hey guys...I've always dreamed of hearing a few of my songs performed with a symphony orchestra...this is one of them...unfortunately that has not happened (and most likely never will) so I have to settle with the 'Firesong Symphony Orchestra' (aka. the Yamaha Genos)...the theme is praise and the intent is to give glory and praise to the source of any song I've ever written...so...if you do...thanks for listening...Dan My Highest Praise(Key D 75bpm) https://soundclick.com/r/s34md8BiaB components: 701 Bass 363 Acoustic Guitar 364 Acoustic Guitar 1856 Cello I added from the Genos: orchestral brass, French horns, strings, harp, piano, choir, tympanies and percussion Vocals: me

A BIG song, Dan. A good write for the subject matter. Excellent vocals. The orchestration is really well done. Good mix.

For all the symphonic elements, this is just about the prettiest song I've ever heard from you. I think you should be thrilled with this. Really top level, even for your high standards. Fantastic stuff.

This is really well done, excellent orchestration and you have a voice that fits this kind of arrangement perfectly. And that's a really good mix, wide, open and transparent.

Really well done, Dan, like everyone else has already said, a BIG sound.
Good write, but the icing on the cake of course is the vocal.
Excellent!

Ah, The Firesong Orchestra. Excellent choice, Dan. Very well produced. Good write, and a nice nod to the writer. Man, you've done an excellent job building this gem to such soaring heights of symphonic sounds.

Dan,
That orchestra sounds fantastic! I know it's the Genos, but the folks at Yamaha really did a great job putting that instrument together! You also did a great job putting this song together! The vocals are super! The harmony is as good or better than anything ever posted here! Nice job hitting those high notes...you're singing like you are in your 20's! What a great ending on this...pro all the way!
Thanks, Torrey

In one word, MAGESTIC.
You can just close your eyes and pretend you’re in front of that orchestra, Dan.
Lyric, vocals, arrangement, RT’s, Genos magic and mix are all top notch.
Well done!

Thanks so much to everyone for your gracious comments about My Highest Praise...the Genos is a great workstation...a lot of it's features are still beyond my paygrade (as with BiaB)...but both have opened up new horizons in creative thought and inspired a great deal of my music...we are all so blessed to be able to produce in our homes what years ago we could only dream of doing in expensive studio time.

Wow Dan! I guess you know that I'm a big fan of your music, but gosh you outdid yourself here. What a sound! This song has an anointing and you did one heck of a production here. I needed this song today ... it really brought me into a worship mindset.
