They worked in the same office building. They pass in the halls. Sometimes they rode the elevator together. Sometimes when talking to each other they would stutter and or miss a step or two. The same thing would happen when working but thinking about each other. Two extremely shy individuals that were in love with each other but neither would make the first move.

JonD and I tried to capture this scenario.

BiaB style = Rendevous - Arpeggiated Ballad
Deleted all tracks

JonD and I were working with this style when JonD started to play the arpeggios. We decided to go with his version. I then slowly replaced each BiaB track with one of mine. I also used this as an orchestral string exercise as I am trying to improve my string work.

JonD is playing the piano part via his keyboard controller.

I am playing the oboe and female vocal via my wind controller and all of the string parts via my keyboard controller.

Let us know what you think.
---------------------------------------------------------------
On a side note I apologize for not being able to listen to your wonderful music the past couple of months. Life got into the way as I was doing a lot of yard and house work. That coupled with going to a couple of friends' wakes was taking up a lot of time. I hope to become more active in the near future.

Whow, this would fit right into a sad movie...
Love that oboe. All in all very atmospheric!

Mario,

Once again you and Jon managed to create a nicely atmospheric composition. I love the double reed sound of your wind controller. To my ears it sounded more English horn than oboe. It was really beautiful playing against the strings.

All the best,
Noel

Mario and Jon, I think you captured the vibe perfectly. This would work well in a movie with the same theme as your introduction. I enjoyed the spread in the mix. Nicely done. Tom

Gorgeous musical score type thing!! Absolutely beautiful. I imagine a scene of displaced people (maybe during a war), walking in a mass, to somewhere uncertain. Nobody speaking to each other. It really captures my imagination. My fave of your score types for sure! Take care. Greg

Beautifully melancholy. Your description that sets the atmosphere was obviously well thought out. You guys are a wonderful team as illustrated by this production. Hopefully you are putting some of your products at some of the sites that cater to tv and film.

Most enjoyable.

Outstanding.

What a brilliant effort from both of you

Marvelous expression throughout. The strings and oboe are really strong points, with great realism.

Great work.

WOW how on earth do you manage to get that huge orchestral sound
This was beautiful , what a little video depicting the couple so wanting to talk to each other but always passing like ships in the night, with this music in the background could do ?? I started with a WOW and I will end with it.
