Second and third forward for solo impressionist piano!

Post by HenriettaAtkin » Wed Apr 13, 2016 2:20 pm

HI everyone,

In the middle of tax time, when I have not been present on the board, I receive the delightful news -- second and third forward!

This one for both of my versions of "Waterlilies" which was for the Impressionistic piano listing.

The versions are on my TAXI page (click link under my name) as "Waterlilies" and Waterlilies alt"

Also, here is a link to the THIRD time I remixed it.

Thank you, Michael, for making dreams come true! You are awesome!

ORIGINAL, SOLO CLASSICAL PIANO INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by the CEO of a Production Music Library with tons of great Film/TV placements. They’re on the hunt for Down-to-Mid-Tempo Classical Piano Cues that’d you hear on the same playlists as composers like (but not limited to) Satie, Debussy, Ravel, etc., etc., etc. Please listen to the following references to get in the stylistic wheelhouse of what they’re looking for: “Gymnopedie No. 1” by Eric Satie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-Xm7s9eGxU “Reverie” by Claude Debussy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0CLYpYKHNY “Pavane Pour Une Infante Defunte” by Ravel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPHSHZssOLs Please submit well-crafted Piano Instrumental Cues that embody the French Minimalist, and Impressionist composers of the late 19th and 20th centuries. Build your Cue around a simple and expressive main melodic motif that feels atmospheric, and leaves the audience in a Zen frame of mind, floating through the clouds. If you’re using a sampled/virtual Piano, be sure that it sounds indistinguishable from the real thing! Anything that is obviously synthetic or MIDI-driven won’t work for this pitch. Avoid anything overly busy or frenetic as they’re looking for simple pieces that lay peacefully under dialog. Imagine the type of music you’d hear during a documentary as they take a look back at happy childhood memories. That’s the type of music they want to hear! Your submissions should be 2 to 3 minutes in length. Natural endings/ring outs, with no fades are recommended. Do NOT copy or rip off the referenced composers in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). This company offers an EXCLUSIVE 50/50 deal, so please be sure the Cues you submit to this pitch are NOT already signed with any other Libraries or Catalogs. You’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share, and the Publisher gets 100% of the Publisher’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright. Please submit one to three Instrumental Cues online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis - No full critiques. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59PM (PST), on Wednesday, March 16th, 2016 TAXI #D160316PC

Listening to these now, Henrietta. Very nice, and most definitely in the Impressionist style!
