I love the way this starts. It is so full of energy and expectations that are not lost.

I know exactly what you mean about working on a theme to get it right. I have a piece that I started last Aug. that I am still working on getting right. It is almost there, yet when one note is off and I can't seem to find it, it can be frustrating.

This is not at all what I expected when you said String Quartet. I didn't count on the bass. As SSC said, some of this is very cinematic. The whole piece is tgelling a story andf could easily fit as background in a movie.

Oh, BTW, can I borrow like 1000$ and maybe crash at your place for a few months? Oh and my dog just died and I need a shoulder to cry on BOO HOO. Last thing, I just got elected to be President of the United States and may not be able to pay you back. (I'll say that after you lend me the money)

I have seen it and know exactly where you are coming from.

I am now without a doubt your biggest fan. This piece does not need to be made shorter. I think it flows along great just as it is. I could see it being made into a full blown orchestral piece. It would be very easy to add tons of instruments to this, but that is up to you.

One thing about it... You had said this was going to be a quartet. The samples you are using are not solos, so is it meant then as a string piece?

Love the work Vince!!!!! Great stuff
