New Composition with Video

Post by zuul-studios »

Hi -

To be honest, I'm reluctant to share this because. . . well. . . most of you are Pros, and I'm just a hack hobbyist who likes to compose (whenever I make the time to write music).

This is a video of our Spring vacation that we took. . . while staying home. We live near the Berkshire and Catskill Mountains area (being closer to the Berkshires, actually), so during our vacation we did lots of hiking. . . which is a safe thing to do during the Age of Pandemic. Of course, I took LOTS of photos and videos of our hikes! We really do live in a beautiful area of the country.

The composition came first, though. I wrote it (using Finale) earlier this year. I used MOTU's DP10, of course, along with an older templet of VIs housed on the happy VEPro 7. The composition, itself, doesn't have a title yet. (I probably won't give it a title as it's part of the video which does have one.) The music seemed to lend itself to the photos & videos of our springtime hiking adventures. It ain't gonna win an Academy award! But I really do enjoy doing this. . . (And yes! I do like my DP 10 program!)

So. . . Here's the video. If anything, I hope this video gives you an appetite to visit this area of the world. It has lots of trails with lots of scenic outlooks. Just click on the link. . .

Warm Regards to All. . .

Ted

It's nice to see beauty and fun in the midst of our unrelenting horror. Thanks for posting it; it really improved my mood!

Very nice, Ted... both the video and the music!

Do you ever go to the Mt. Washington state forest or Bash Bish Falls? I live way downstate, but have a couple of friends in that area. Great hiking!

The landscape up there looks a lot like my area in the lower Hudson Valley. Hiking is a great way to clear your head, and you look like you really enjoy it! Keep it up, and keep making great music!
peace,

Very enjoyable. Lovely photography, both drone and camera, and the music is well-composed and catchy. Would love to play some real sax to replace the sampled sax parts ... not that I'm a great sax player .. just would be fun.

Thanks for posting.
