I'd be very happy with that from a composition and recording perspective.

This is indeed a very clean recording, and that's a pretty lively quartet too

Seemingly no longer an 'elderly'.
Now a 'Senior'. Is that promotion?

This recording grabbed me immediately - it's got such a lively yet controlled feel!

Great! Had a bit of a Tippett vibe to them I thought.
Lovely work all round.

You don't have to write songs. The world doesn't want you to write songs. It would probably prefer it if you didn't. So write songs if you want to. Otherwise, please don't bore us with beefing about it. Go fishing instead.

Agree with everything everyone else has said plus that recording on Youtube will be worth gold in furthering your career. Nicely.

That sounds great, really present and focused but not fatiguing. Love it.
But this is sound on sound you have to tell us what gear you used and how it was configured.

I've never liked a solo violin, you need at least five for a proper fire.
Re: So happy! Finally got a beautiful recording of my string quartet!
Very nice sound! Also as above, can you give details of the equipment used, and also the recording venue?

Re: So happy! Finally got a beautiful recording of my string quartet!
Yes, unfortunately I don't know about the recording equipment used because I did not personally record it. I was a prize winner at the national Young Composers Challenge competition and they recorded the prize concert. Thanks for listening!
