You can hear the piece that got forwarded here: https://soundcloud.com/caderobertsmusic ... film-musicPUBLIC DOMAIN and/or ORIGINAL, CLASSICAL STRING QUARTET INSTRUMENTAL PIECES are needed for a NON-Exclusive placement by a Hollywood Music Supervisor for a fancy restaurant scene in a very popular series! He's hunting for mood-setting Instrumental pieces in the general stylistic wheelhouse of Beethoven, Pachelbel, Rachmaninov, etc., etc., etc. Please review the following pieces to get yourself in the ballpark of the hoity toity sound he needs:
"String Quartet No. 1 in F Major, Op. 18" by Beethoven
"Canon and Gigue in D Major" by Johann Pachelbel
"String Quartet No. 1, Romance" by Sergei Rachmaninov
Give them authentic sounding pieces that are either real instruments, or sound indistinguishable from a real string quartet. Any material that sounds stiff or "synthy" won't work well for this pitch. This track will be used as source music, so be sure your piece creates an atmosphere of elegance and sophistication. Instrumentals that are at least two-minutes long are recommended, and you'd be smart to avoid pieces that are overly busy so they don't distract from the scene's dialogue. If you submit a cover of Public Domain piece, you'd be wise to stick to the traditional arrangement of the piece so it sounds familiar to the Music Supervisor. Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine).
Forward on String Quartet Piece!

Nice man, sounds great! I got returned for this one for being too MIDI-stiff. Good luck!
