Tasteful! &mdash 03/01/05 - 07:23:07 AM
Tasteful playing and very soothing. Nice work with the
strings. Good for the genre.

nice development of a simple theme &mdash 03/01/05 - 11:14:46 AM
I like the way this builds, the way the idea develops. I also
enjoyed the use of strings as a kind of percussive or
rhythmic device. Good piece.

Sir Lancelot? &mdash 03/01/05 - 12:01:57 PM
I was drawn by the title (very Monty Python), but stayed for the performance. Not what I expected. Very nice. I wish it were longer.

Sir Lancelot? &mdash 03/01/05 - 07:36:47 PM
Sir
Launcelot
it is! Well, I was running out of names fast. This had a
classical feel to it and I wanted to add some notion of humor to it.



And thus Grenade of Antioch.



You're right in that the music itself doesn't exactly depict humor.



Oh and, thanks all for taking the time to comment.

Yes &mdash 03/02/05 - 12:56:21 AM
Absolutely yes. A very excellent composition. The fluidity
and grace of Johanne Pachelbel. You have arrived.

clear as Glass &mdash 03/03/05 - 02:29:52 PM
Wonderful chordal theme and variation, like a Philip Glass
soundtrack. The judicious use of pizz added a wonderful
lightness. Very nice sounding piano. Mellow and well
paced. Nice slow fade.

Like a soundtrack &mdash 08/13/05 - 06:42:17 AM
Now we need to find the movie for it !
The mixing and weaving of the tracks is very finely crafted.
Good work.

Love it &mdash 08/13/05 - 08:45:26 AM
I really liked this one. Very heartfelt and sweet.
The pizzicato strings are particularly to my taste - really
light and kind of playful.
The piano is really great - really adds to the emotion of
the overall piece.
Thanks for sharing
Fav'ed and downloaded!

Not so much "new age" &mdash 08/13/05 - 07:49:06 PM
as "soundtrack" is what it sounds like to me. Very consistent
in mood, and more based on melodic hooks than an actual
melody. Quite effective in conveying a certain atmosphere.
