Just another day at the beach....

Hi Dnj
Are you sure the songs are not being blocked by some security feature on your computer, as I have no problems accessing them, and I am certainly not a member.

Diki
Nice tune and I have always had a soft spot for Kurzweil, so it was always going to be an avid listen.

Enjoy whatever you play

Bill

Hope this helps

Thanx Bill......
I really enjoyed the tunes ...nice relaxing music Piano was wonderful and very well done...it gave me a Richard Clayderman-ish vibe really nice stuff!!

Good sound Diki. My wife heard it also and wanted me to save it for her. She was from Panama City and had heard of the Magnolia House.

Hey, what's the name of the place where the pic was taken? Is it in Destin?

Yes, Scott. It at Finz in Sandestin, what used to be the Elephant's Walk. They tore up the deck and relocated us this year. Oh well, it only took them ten years to cover us from the sun - maybe they'll be quicker this time! Drop on in sometime....

Thank you all for the kind comments. Once again, I stress this is NOT arranger based, and I did not compose or play the piano part. I just orchestrated it. Her music is firmly in the 'relaxation' mode, so I could not be overly dramatic with the orchestration. Over the years we have settled on a small orchestra, just strings, woods and french horns, and about once an album she has a slightly more dramatic piece that I can add percussion and brass, but even then, it's still pretty even...!

But it's a fun project, even though sometimes it's difficult to fit in with my gig schedule. Makes a change from Margaritaville,, Donny!

Oh, and abacus... Yes, there's still a lot of useful sounds and features in the old K2500 that nothing else still has. It is definitely the most powerful master controller I've ever seen. You can make almost anything do anything! Want the sliders to play notes..? No problem! Want the volume to drop slightly as you add more notes (for divisi)..? No problem! Want to change zones using the touch strip..? No problem! It's a geek's wet dream!

BTW, the strings are a custom patch, not the internals. Part Peter Scziedlek, part Sweetwater (cello), part public domain (violin), part who knows what! I made it about eight years ago, and even I can't remember exactly what went in..! The woods are factory Orch ROM chip.

Hi Diki

Sounds like you've been at that place for awhile? What day's/times are you there?

It would be fun to come out and see what you're doing with the G70 and shoot the breeze a bit.

Scott

Scott, drop me an email and I'll let you know the schedule.. Love to see you. I play there and a couple of other places in Baytown in Sandestin and Seaside, Ft Walton Bch., etc..

Haven't played Pensacola much since my Flounder's 'Lazy Days' reggae period. See you soon.....
