I needed a break from some heavy duty projects since I am hiding out from the virus in my studio, so I did this for some fun, inspired by hearing the movie fanfares on the other thread -

VSL FANFARE

Very cool, Bill! I thought at first that you were channeling Rossini, who it is said would yank arias wholesale out of his previous works when he knew his next premiere was in a town that hadn't heard the previous use of the tune. But when I rechecked the intro of one of my favorite Kersten opuses, I found that I was wrong; similar, but clearly different. I like 'em both.
On the subject of the Goldsmith Universal fanfare, I just heard an interview with the great LA studio French hornist Jim Thatcher wherein he talks about playing on that track. He relates that he played Wagner tuba on it. When queried if being stuck with the tuben part was the fate of the last hornist to show up for the session, he declared, "No way!" Honking a few bars on the tuben earns the player 50% premium pay as a doubler. The hornists always try to talk the composers into using Wagner tubas for a lick or two.

Hello William
The music is great! And it goes well with the picture.
But the mix is a bit weak. After the first bang the power is gone. Such a fanfare should come with more power. Maybe you have to leave your beloved MIR-tool and mix the music in a conventional way.
Another idea would be to use the Smart Orchestra. There are a lot of demo tracks there that have exactly that power that I miss a bit on your fanfare.
If you like: Send me the midifile of your fanfare and I will create the fanfare with more power.
With kind regards
Beat
