Douglas Kirby 791 Posted May 19 Nice work on this one David - I thought it was a good listen throughout. I thought the ending worked fine - well done. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhonoBrainer 1,864 Posted May 20 The kaliope-type organ was very alive and breathy, if that's what it was? I liked the middle part especially. It all sounds quite organic. cheers, -Tom 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Sprouse 801 Posted May 20 Thanks for listening Tom. Not sure if you meant the ending (sounding like a kaliope, which it did) or tutti sections. I rejiggered it a little to make it sound more like a real orchestra. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jesse Screed 652 Posted May 23 so see' I had posted a response earlier but for some reason it did not stick what I said was, it sound like your hands, your ears, and your imagination are having a cup of tea together 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjornpdx 1,031 Posted May 23 Spanish guitar song but no guitar? Orchestration with the flute is very nice. I like how you handled the ending with the ascending notes before landing on the final one. -Bjorn 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larry T. 249 Posted May 24 great work....compositionally your music always intrigues me as the way you smoothly sonically move from bar to bar with so many instruments is the direction i would like to move towards 🎼👍👍🎶 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johnbee58 338 Posted May 27 Very relaxing. Would work nicely for background music for a narration type of setting. 😀John B 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bapu 5,112 Posted May 28 Nice little piece there David. JMO, but the flue parts were a bit overbearing (volume wise). I get that it's the "main" instrument but.... 🙂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just arranged it for orchestra.

These were a group of songs called Castles of Spain that Segovia popularized. On 5/27/2022 at 11:24 AM, Johnbee58 said: Very relaxing.

For instance, solo guitar is ofter microphoned for concertos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noynekker 379 Posted May 31 David, this really takes me back to my music college days, a time when life was much simpler . . . I just don't listen to classical orchestrations enough these days, and I enjoyed this piece a lot . . . yes, I wanted it to be longer . . . but that's all Torroba wrote I guess. Your mix and rendition are excellent here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's nice having the freedom to write anything and everything one wants. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
