This is a dedicated demo for English Horn (French) with orchestral accompaniment. Don't look for the eng. horn at the beginning it only comes in at around 40 sec.
The English Horn is from the VSL downloads.
At a later point I will do a demo for English Horn (Viennese), so you could hear the difference.

Thanks for listening!

That is great! The beginning reminds me - without it being stolen at all - of the Ravel Daphnis and Chloe. Really atmospheric and fantastic handling of all the textures and orchestration. I find it almost impossible to listen to this without seeing a film scene. It is just amazing to think that this is digital sampling. It shows how great both Guy's work and VSL's tremendous artistry really are. Sorry to gush but it is inspiring to hear this.
Hi William,
Thanks! Really nice to read your comment. [A] Yes, you named my reference, Daphnis and Chloé, but a bit more agitated.
What was interesting for me in this piece, contrary to the other few I did in that orchestration style is that I didn't use any pre-recorded runs with the exception of the harp, but the rest are all individual notes.
