Live Strings

I guess this should be addressed to you, Sasha...
Are those live strings at the beginning of your record?
The beginning has such a Coldplay feel, and I was just wondering, because I love how orchestrated their music is.

I'd like to know also

Sounds like live strings to me. Good arrangement! Loved those backgrounds too. I can't stop playing it!!!!

YES... they are live strings written and arranged by Rob Lewis.

So, we had the song and thought we were done... But, you know that feeling when something is missing? We deliberated and knew the song needed to grow in the first verse. Live strings was the answer.

And.. I LOVE Coldplay!!

Wow...this IS a really big record...
Glad to hear that my ears wasn't deceptive.
Live instruments always seems to make a song bigger.

(I just wanted to use that smiley)

This is the actual string arrangement for "Let's Fly Away".

Much respect to the Mad Scientist. Rob Lewis is an animal. You two will make a LOT of noise together. Extremely humble for one who has accomplished so much at such a young age. Definitely a mentor of mine.

Wowwwww...the sheet music set it all off.
Handwritten strings parts.
I'm not working hard enough.
