Re: Ave Maria

firstly a fine voice, and I appreciate the effort at something so well known.

Speaking production wise
-- at 0.49 there is some sort of artifact in the sound (sizzle) it might be too much reverb that is echoing as I hear it later, although less prominently, in some of the higher phrases;
-- for my ear it feels like the lead vocal, which is naturally bright and edgy, is warring with the accompaniment (played very well) in the more intense passages ... it sits in the same frequency. Perhaps some additional bass and a reduction in reverb would bring more warmth and smoothness.

Just my thoughts, others may hear things differently. Keep or sweep,

(This is not for a TAXI listing.)
Hello forum folks
We have recently created the following version of the Bach-Gounod Ave Maria. Singer (and co-producer) is Katleen Dugas.
Obviously, there is the piano, but in the arrangement, I also added strings, a Wurlitzer (for a slightly non-classical touch), oboes, French horn, and a choir - most of it fairly subtle.
We cannot change the lyrics or melody, but any comments/thoughts on the production are welcome.
Best wishes,
Tom
Well done, my two friends.
