Milestone revision 22

I've made my improvements on the seagulls and frogs.  CLICK HERE to listen to Draft 22.

The video is on youtube.  Beverly, Ryan and I are thinking of making a few improvements, like adding the names of the birds, how to contact us and adding in the revision 22 music. Also, we're thinking the video of the cardinal singing should be heard and mixed in with the symphony.

Here are more beautiful new sunrise photos by my friend and colleague, Beverly Gaddy.


My serious composer friends and mentors are telling me to do more with the orchestra, because now it's taking a back seat to the birdsong, whereas it should be more like a concerto...I'm going to leave it alone for a few weeks and come back to it to see how I can strengthen the orchestral writing so it has more meat and isn't just "nice."

For my composer friends, click here to see the score.

My wish is that this work will guide its audience to better listening to nature. It's all about the respect and love of the intelligence and purpose of nature sounds. Thanks for letting me know your thoughts!   -d
