The Bell Tower and the Cross

Wow. A superb cinema work and pro production! The orchestra has superb authenticity, clarity and expression! I think the best virtual orchestra I've heard (unless it's real?). Thanks for comments on my Night Train Home

I really enjoyed the progression of this piece through different moods. The mix was very clear. The back story was interesting to see and the music paints a nice story itself.

Thanks for taking the time to listen n feedback - very useful!

I think I heard some Danny Elfman influence for a bit...

Thanks for having a listen...DE - that's a comparison, I can live with!

Thank you for having a listen and commenting - glad you liked it!

VST Orchestra is 90% Spitfire Audio's 'Albion One'...couple of other libraries feature as extra texture + there's bits of live recording as well - clarinets and mixed into the tense string riser section - a real viola and violin!

Great piece, it really hits the spot you were aiming for. Even without your description it paints a mystery/drama/British TV setting. Hopefully you get picked up to do just that.
Your posts are always worth the listen.

offtopic: Midsomers Murders has my favorite TV theme music: a theremin lead and 3/4 time. I get a real kick from episodes where there is a band of some sort in the show doing the theme music

Thank you! Much appreciated!

Original version of this one was written quite a few years ago - licensed it a few times, but only to live theatre shows...it would be great to get it on TV...you never know!

Midsomers Murders - that's a good one without a doubt and just a little bit 'different' as well! witnessed (never got involved) a blazin' row about that piece a few years ago on a music forum...so much anger and hate both ways by the end...

And what was the world-shattering issue, I hear you ask? They simply disagreed about whether it was in 3/4 time or 6/8 !!!

Simple truth is that it was originally written in 3/4 traditional Waltz feel, but scores are available for the piece in both, so who cares!

it is indeed very father brown/miss marple etc, would work great setting up a series long mystery.

but it is also a great standalone piece, the discordant section especially stood out to me.

wish i had the vocabulary to say more, but know it would be positive!! good to see you

That would be great! Agree with other commenters, it sounds cool by itself.

Hiya vurt...wondered whether you were still around KVR! I still join in with the Music Café 'fun song factory' from time to time... thanks for having listen!

Discordant section has been mentioned positively by quite a few listeners...Interesting...well it is to me, anyway!
