	Clarinet Quintet "Spring Dance of the Plants" - that's PERFECT! It is light hearted, sublime and the intricacies of your composing never ceases to amaze me David!

Second listen
... and I commented on the other site. Really like this composition - and chamber work is my favourite in the classical ouvre. Having said that, some of the string presets need adjustments to give them the proper ambience. Not sure if this is the jam pack - but I'm incessantly tweaking the reverb, attack/decay on various instruments to get them to sound more legit.

Spring Dance
While most everything posted has been done in Logic with Orchestral Jam Pack, this was written completely in a Notation program, Notion. I'm still getting the hang of the sound, and it's way as flexible from a production/mixer view, but it produces a nearly perfect score and understands articulations. I'm looking to most effectively combine where possible.
