Hello everyone,

Hector is currently being caught in material misfortune right now, and it is even more complicated than that. :( :cry: :?

So I thought, in way of solidarity and support between pro Musicians, to publish here a lovely Composition from Hector.

It is called : "A Beautiful CITY", just click on the TAXI link below.

Actually we did it together. And when we do things musically together, it is always twice better.
I did the Intro, and Hector did the Virtuoso Piano, and I added the Flute and the Violins etc ...

Thank you for your support, I will tell Hector. :)

I remember, Hector and myself, we composed this nice Instrumental together, just a few days after Hector's arrival, in my "Beautiful City" in England. This was in May 2011.

Hector would play on my little Piano with such enthusiasm, that the table it was placed on started to rock.
Hector can play anything, any time, and he can play a Melody and few Chords, and then .. repeat it few minutes later, ... EXACTLY the same. Something that I can only achieve with the help of my Computer, through the "Duplicate" button, smile.

So I started with the Percussion, and a little bit of Guitar, and next there was no stopping Hector. Yes, the moment that Hector starts the Piano is quite cool.

I just added the Flutes, (there are two Flutes with somewhat a dissonant tone, on purpose) and the Violins, for the Drama sake ! Smile.

I guided Hector for when to start, because he was unfamiliar with Garage Band, but Hector helped me with the good timing, as for when to start the Shakers, for instance. Ah, wonderful memory indeed ! :)

It is in F minor, Tempo : 90

Hector loved the change at 1.25, I remember. Actually it was Hector playing the Piano, but I changed the Track into the Guitar !

You may want to listen one or two others of our Co-compositions, here, called : "Catherine's Balcony" :

And here, called : "The SEA, and commendable Ships", and ""The Nature of TREES":

As many of us are working for Movies, TV, Documentaries ... etc, it is convenient that we associate Music with Images. ... and Imagination !
