Mate, I think this is the first recording I’ve come across by any composer (professional or otherwise) whose mockup doesn’t sound like a plasticky, MIDI-esque imitation of the real thing. (maybe an orchestration which had actual effort put into it helps, IDK). As it sounds now, this could be an underscore for any big-budget Hollywood production, and I wouldn’t raise an eyebrow. Shows how far technology has come. I achieved some great results with layering CCS and CCS solo, but nothing close to this. I would actually pay money for an in-depth tutorial on how you produce. Do you input the instruments one by one by hand (by that I mean keyboard) into the DAW?

Wow, thanks! That’s very kind. My workflow is that I first compose and orchestrate using Dorico. Then I play each line individually into the DAW, making sure that each instrument gets its own unique performance. It certainly isn’t the fastest way to do it, but I find that this workflow gets the best results for me personally. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have other questions!

Yes, couldn't agree more. This has become one of my favourite classical pieces of all time.

I second this! Great score. And honestly, I hate how so many people MIDI just a "Mock up," like no - MIDI instruments, especially Cinematic Studio Series can be a full blown score, not just a "mock up."
Karl's compositions should be listened to all over the world, they are of an impressive sensitivity and knowledge!

A masterpiece by all standards. Perfectly recapitulates what makes romantic era and early film music so excellent. Beautiful. And the sound library is great too.

This piece is just... wow, no words for this inspirational composition, it has a very fairytale-like feel and very romantic with a very pure melody. The end feels very inspired by Holst; The Planets; Venus. This is a very fenominal piece of music for this time period. Make sure to keep striving!
Beautiful and touching piece. Congrats!

Amazing! The layering on the strings really sells them big time. The percussion sounds really nice too. Awesome programming and of course composition!
A wonderful showcase of Cinematic Studios' products bro.... beautifully composed, orchestrated and programmed but mother goose definitely wants her golden ending back... 😊 That said, M. 25 is quite the silky swoon(!) and that's all you. Awesome.

Wow Karl. Yours are SERIOUS skills. Hats off to you. It made me look at the painting from a completely different perspective. Thank you. Your grace and sensitivity are really something. Congrats on library programming too. Strings sound extraordinarily convincing. I usually layer CSS with CSSS, and sometimes have tried with other people to add Pacific in longs, but never got it to sound quite like you. Do you use standard mic mix or tweak it a bit?
Wow, your production quality is top notch! If I heard this for this first time (not knowing sample libraries were used in this), you definitely would have fooled me in to believing this to be a real recording of an orchestra! This is some underrated work! hope to hear more of your work soon 😅
