Hi Sherry,

It melds into a nice sound, for which the brass writing is responsible in no small part. For some reason, I am getting no sound from the electric piano preset, so I listened with the standard GM voice oohs and synth voice, then choir aahs, which sounds best. But I am surprised that kids can sing that low. This is the first thing I've heard in which the brass section preset sounds legitimate, and that is due to your use of it, I'm pretty sure. I still wonder if there wouldn't be more depth using trumpet(s) and trombone(s)? That 'section' preset always seems to be more tinny than brassy.

And finally, the piece is going pretty well with my late snack, which is a fudge brownie heaped with Cool Whip.

all best,
