I haven't had a chance to post in quite a while, but I finally had time to record a new tune:

Saguaros

This is an instrumental tune. I'm playing clarinet, all else is from the style, and the violin is a soloist.
I am continually fascinated by the Saguaros here in Tucson, and this tune was inspired by those crazy cacti.

I used Logic X to put it together. I'd appreciate any and all comments; I'm very new at using Logic!

Here's the information from the song memo:
Title: Saguaros
Key=G , Tempo 140, Length (m:s)=5:47
8 bar intro, 48 bar chorus, from bar 9 to bar 56. Repeat x4 choruses
Soloist track has 260 notes, Soloist harmony is <no harmony>
Song is saved with Volume, Pan, Reverb, Chorus, Bank0,
Style is _EQUATOR.STY

RealTracks in style: 2284:Bass, Acoustic, BossaRon Ev 140
RealTracks in style: ~2288:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm BossaKenny Ev 140
RealTracks in style: ~1216:Vibes, Rhythm Bossa Ev 140
RealTracks in style: 1856:Cello, Background PopCountry Ev 085
RealDrums: RealDrums in Style: BossaBrushesFull^1-a:Sidestick, Brushes , b:Sidestick, Ride

Thank you.

Very nice listen Marc. Love the clarinet. This was the first instrument I learned to place. Then the Beatles showed up on Ed Sullivan and the clarinet was traded for a guitar :-). Loved the tune

Marc,

Very relaxing and enjoyable!
I especially like the beginning with the cello leading to your fine clarinet playing.

Nice song!

We both love the clarinet and have for many years.

Your arrangement with both your playing and the RT's works very well.

You'll love Logic...been using it for three years or so.

Thanks for posting this!
