El Pajaro Cantor (The Songbird)-Original Instrumental (Almost)

[Johnbee]

I was thinking about waiting till tomorrow to post this, but I guess "no vocals allowed" means exactly that, even if it's just a few background oooohhs or aaahhhhs, so that disqualifies it from the Instrumental Festival.  Oh well.............

Anyway-One day, about a week ago upon awakening for the day a thought came into my head, out of nowhere to google the Spanish translation for "songbird", for a song title, which I did, and about two hours later, in my studio this little tune began to take shape.  I guess it's just the romantic nature of  the Spanish language that I find so appealing to title this song.  I wasn't looking to write a song to match the title.  It just worked out that way.

Neither am I of any Hispanic nationality.  I'm Italian, Welsh and German mix.  The title and theme just sounds so good. 
Please enjoy "El Pajaro Cantor" (The Songbird).

Oh those chords - Great bass lines and tones - flute harmonies nailed it!

[Greeny]

Total class as always. There's a melancholy feel (to the flute especially) that reminds me of The Carpenters - a kind of beautiful sadness. So many lovely, intricate sections and arranging. Excellent!

[Frank53]

Beautiful work, John. Reminiscent of Hubert Laws. Great progression. Love the flutes and the bass lines.

[Ferryman_1957]

I can only agree with Tim, total class John. Lovely arrangement with beautiful, gentle melodies. Played to perfection as always and sup[erbly recorded and mixed as always. Can't really say more, it's another excellent piece of music from you which I really enjoyed.

brilliant john , i agree with hardlock bass lines are superb , and sounds great quite relaxing great listen .....cheers tony cee

[Farrell Jackson]

Nicely done John! Everything flows along with ease. The bass is super as are the flute harmonies. You've fit a lot of instruments into this one with each sitting in it's own space. Well done!

[Johnbee]

Hey, Hardlock, Greeny, Frank, Ferryman, Tony C and Ferrell-Thanks all so much!  Really means a lot to me.
