  • That's a fine composition !  Also the performance seems just about perfect.  


  • You know I wish more people would compose in the Neo-Classical style like this especially for solo strings. It just seems too many "composers" today are trying to be edgy and avant gard by playing with bows lathered in peanut butter or performing while riding tricycles in a circle or something. Why can't we just get back to writing good music like Mr. Sanford's piece here. No! No! It's got to be bold and different! Anyway a nice piece Mr. Sanford. Thank you for sharing. BTW the Soundcloud version had some snap crackles and pops (I listened 3 times) maybe upload again? The YouTube version is crystal clear however.

    Thank you for your comments. And thank you for the heads up about the SoundCloud problem. I'll check it out.


  • Hi Leslie,

    I listened to your piece and loved it, and I also agree with Jason Smith.  The recording sounds excellent.
