On the technical side, Jillian did all the vocal arrangement and engineering while I did the technical work on the instrumentals (though she was by my side the entire time as the 'executive' producer, so to speak!) Besides lots of virtual instruments and sample libraries we worked with a number of talented musicians like Tina Guo (cello), Malukah (vocals), Jeff Ball (violin), Sandro Friedrich (duduk), the Philadelphia Boys Choir and Mens Chorale, Doug Perry (percussion) and Joe Zieja (acoustic guitar), among others. Plus, the track "Will o' the Wisp" was actually co-written with Grammy-award winning composer Christopher Tin, a wonderful collaboration!
We could not be more proud of the results, and I hope you all will enjoy the music as well
Thanks in advance for listening!
