It's a rather sudden start Mario...all in on beat 1. You've created a lovely soundscape. Those strings on the right playing staccato could use a little something - a slight delay or a smidge more reverb on their end notes. Other than that I sat n listened. For a dude with a guitar in his hands in his avatar you certainly are a MIDI master. Ray thanx so much for this very kind review and especially for the great suggestions. I am trying to learn orchestration and suggestions like this really help. Thanx again.
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Hi Mario Excellent song with a powerful orchestra sound Since you have really created something great Fantastic work Mario Many greetings Andi ;-) Thanx so much Andi. Those orchestral MIDI loops I purchased and a little modification I think they sounded great also.

Oh, yes, it's hard to tell which direction that magic flute is actually emanating from. I could wander around in this musical melee and never be disappointed. The way you pave the path to that garden is filled with so much magic itself that is is not disappointing to never reach the prize. The prize is the way. Marty, you write some of the most interesting reviews! I should have you write in song introductions! Thanx for listening and these very nice comments.

The sprites are about, ain't they?
Wonderfully textured, cinematic, and of course, magical!
I love the flute part. The choir evokes the sun rising.

Mario,
Nicely done. That piano sounds good. I really like those strings stabs! Nice job with the controller (as always).
Good mix. A beautiful listen.

Mario...definitely one of your best...so peaceful at times then a slow gradient movement into a suspenseful atmosphere...I agree with Torrey that you are a master at creating super soundscapes for us to venture through...loved it...Dan

Beautiful! I like your flute playing, and the string arrangement is also pretty good.
I think I've told you before that you're really good at film music.

I'm not so sure about that "master at creating super soundscapes" but I'm still trying and learning about creating soundscapes.

Very soothing, enchanting and mystical. You are the master of other-wordly soundscapes. Well done.

Wow! All your performances and the mix are ace as usual. The subtle build is very effective. We just wish that for those few who managed to enter they were not left confused! J&B

Mario, this is really cool cinematic music that needs a video to go with it. I like the parts where it goes to the minor.
I have to wonder if there are guys out there who like creating videos and how we would get hooked with them.
I don't know how you guys find the time to keep up on this showcase. It seems like another excellent piece of music is posted every five minutes.
Best regards, Mario, to you and the better half.
Billy
New location, new environment, new music coming soon
Seize the moo-ment If you feel like you’ve herd all these cow puns before, you probably have deja-moo

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
