Sorry for the big download file, but hopefully it will be worth it for you.

Any comments are appreciated!

I really like the piano in that. How long did that take you to write?

Thanks, Flinte.

The original version of the piece probably took about 4 or 5 months at about 15 hours/week, including preparing both the printed score and recording. The revision was another six weeks, but was worked on only a bit at a time.

Well the song definitely shows how much time you put into that. What programs do you use? Notepad?

For sequencing I use Sonar 7 Producer Edition.

The libraries are:
Garritan Personal Orchestra (most instruments)
Garritan Jazz and Big Band (trumpets and 2 of 3 trombones)
Garritan Steinway Piano
And one other percussion sample from the Kontakt library.

For notation, I use Sibelius 5.

Wow you have quite a setup going there, and here I am stuck with Fruity Loops haha. Have you ever listened to Joe Hiashi? Your work reminds me of his.
