I do, heh! I'd get married to that! I'm curious to know about the process for this one. Sure, you've got to make a song that the bride and groom approve of, but do they tell you things like how long it needs to last or other cues that need to be hit in the song? Great work, by the way!

I do, heh! This one's a little tricky since the bride and groom are using this recording for the entrance. Most times I hand over the score to whatever musicians they're having and then the timing is mostly their problem. I do try and envision the participants coming in to get a rough estimate. With this, I have a list of the people walking down. So I estimated. I envision the bride making her way at the build into the guitar/oboe section...

very sweet and perfect for a wedding This is the first classical/orchestral piece I've heard from you, and it's a very well-constructed and pleasant tune indeed. Nice change of pace (although I love your show stuff too). I think you should get this one published. It's PERFECT for weddings! My only suggestion would be to bring up the nice guitar sound in the mix a bit; it seems to be the main solo instrument although the oboe is a nice counter-melody. Very, very pleasant song! It could also easily go in the New Age/acoustic genre, too. Check out my latest song called EPONYM

very sweet and perfect for a wedding Camero, thanks for your comments and suggestions. I'll play a little with the level of the guitar... do you think though that the guitar sort of repeats itself too much to be the center focus throughout? Check out my latest song called I Can't Remember Me

very sweet and perfect for a wedding Upon listening to this again, I think that both the oboe and the guitar share the melodies fairly equally, with perhaps the oboe having the slight edge. The guitar does have some repeated figures but I still think that it should be more prominent in the mix. The flute sound could also be given to the oboe instead....the flute seemed not to fit the texture quite as well as the other instruments. And if you publish this, it will be one less musician to hire! <lol> Check out my latest song called EPONYM

very sweet and perfect for a wedding good point about the number of required musicians! I totally agree that the flute's texture doesn't match the rest of the mix. I think I may need to find a new flute sound... I was using the pop flute but I don't think its cutting it! And your right... the oboe can cover most of the flute notes anyway... I'll have to re-evaluate. Thanks Cameron! Check out my latest song called I Can't Remember Me

Wedding Season I have to go to a wedding in a couple of weeks and no one asked me to do a song for them? Now I know why, that was beautiful. I like the guitar as is but Cameron might be right. Good to here something new from you. Check out my latest song called The Fine Line

By the way... ...have you transcribed this piece note-for-note, with all the instrumental parts, in case you *DO* want to publish this? Just curious. I really think you should publish this piece; it's excellent and has universal appeal and is perfect for weddings. I compose with the music notation software "Sibelius" which works great!

By the way... I haven't yet transcribed this piece... I also use Sibelius... but what I normally do (to save time) is take a midi performance and import it into Sibelius... and then of course go back through and fix the transcription (which can actually be more work sometimes than starting from scratch). Though in this case since I've done it completely in GB, I'm not sure that there's a way to export it as a midi file to import it into Sibelius! I haven't tried to publish anything before. Do you know of a publisher? Thanks again Cameron! I'll have to change the flute part into a French horn part!!! Check out my latest song called I Can't Remember Me

oughew! This is Sweet! Really like it! I wonder if there was any direction from the Bride or Groom..... "We'd like it to sound like this", or did you do it all by yourself ? It is very 'Down the Asile' E kind of mellow sound! '8.75' - I think [ 7788 ] -Cheers! Check out my latest song called Take #5

some suggestions maybe try an alto flute and give it a lower melody line to contrast with all the stuff happening higher up; also, thinning out the number of instruments in general probably wouldn't be a bad thing. Sometimes less is more, and in this case, I think it would be better to be able to hear everything more clearly. I wouldn't recommend simply adding another oboe or putting in a french horn for the flute part. Very nice piece otherwise. Check out my latest song called I Love My Mac mjrf
