The reassuringly complete competence in composition and production here played a great part in my unreserved engagement and enjoyment of this suite. Thank you for this very fine work, William.

I've been mixing various parts of the suite into various recorded video extracts and also the live video of a certain court trial going on at the moment. For me, William's horror-themed suite here works magically in giving my feelings and emotions greater strength, depth, clarity and contrast.

As one of millions of observers of this trial, it seems to me the trial is about trying to expose the "Great Old One" - Lovecraft's Cthulhu. William's suite works so very well because it addresses the multifarious deceptions of covert evil, and, corespondingly, our muted suspicions as well as our direct recognition of evil exposed. There is a wonderfully complex interplay of sub-narratives and surface narratives, both in the trial and in William's Cthulhu suite.

I was reminded at many moments of the fabulous partnership of A. Hitchcock and B. Herrmann.

A profound suite with much magic and scintillation. Bravo and thanks again, William!

First I listened to your whole suite, playing your Cthulhu Youtube playlist all through from start to finish. At various moments while just listening to this profoundly evocative music, my imagination started itching for some visual narrative also.

Some time later, I wondered what it would be like to stream Cthulhu while also streaming various Youtube videos relating to the current "big trial", either directly from the courtroom live video feed or from other Youtube videos relating to the trial. Your Cthulhu played back in one Chrome tab, while trial-related videos played back in other Chrome tabs. Sometimes I selected various Cthulhu moments while letting one video play back naturally; at other times I selected various video moments while letting Cthulhu play back naturally.

These were all simply realtime streaming experiments; I haven't attempted to record any combinations.

I can only report that during these dual-streaming experiments there were many, many superb coincidences of visual and music narratives. For me, all of these coincidences evoked and strengthened the drama of attempts to reveal the real Cthulhu, the real, horrifying monster. That revelation is dramatic enough, but confronting the foul, cunning ways in which Cthulhu attempts to assert control, and to conceal itself and throw suspicion and blame onto others, are also deeply dramatic. These disturbing and dramatic elements are brought out in especially vivid, sharp and meaningful contrast by virtue of apposite accompanying music. Your "Cthulhu" suite certainly has that power, William.

"Cthulhu" is a powerfully evocative symphonic fantasy suite - either on its own, or as an accompanying score.

Right now I must get back to the closing arguments being streamed live from the courtroom!

Dammit, when it's all over I hope someone puts together a highly dramatic video edition of the trial and relevant events, and asks to use your "Cthulhu" for the score! (It won't be me, I'm no video editor.)

I have only heard half the suite so far, I don't know how it could have been much darker... Bill is dangerous!...
