That’s why i faced a lot of problems trying to find the Miles Davis’ album that would have contained the track!… May I ask you how do you discovered the real performer of the song?
I think I have to apologize for this mistake. Thank you very much for the support!

Sorry, but that is not Miles Davis playing Canon in D. It is actually Wynton Marsalis performing Canon for 3 Trumpets and Strings, from the Portrait of Wynton Marsalis album: http://www.wyntonmarsalis.org/discography/classical/portrait-of-wynton-marsalis/

Beautiful, nonetheless. And thanks for posting.

“Classical chillout lounge” was performed by David Soyer & Lynn Harrell; they seem to be classic musicians.

Do you still think they used synths?

that bach is done on synthesizer. It’s not real violin. It’s a bit “glassy”. The edge of the note is not as pretty as real violin.

conventional or not. Music has history. some pieces are well known and have various big interpretation/way of playing it. I was thinking, Miles Davis could have add little “sizzle” to the way he plays the song.

just my take. (you shouldn’t worry too much about weird take on music. It makes the music better. new information about each pieces. It’s fun to endlessly talk about music pieces. It add context)

I love the jehtro thull btw, very lifely

I really have problems to understand the meaning of this kind of compressed english language Sq. Do you hear “synth” playing Bach?
Miles Davis’ track is a interpretation of Pachelbel’s original. Do you know what is conventional to me? The same way you shouldn’t be able to say what could be convenional for the others.
I only consider argumented complains about the quality of the tracks, and whatever complain coming from Moka.
I’m just a dummy/beginner and I hope I will do better in the future. I also hope you liked almost one of the seven tracks. There is something more you want to say, some other complain to discuss? Feel free to say whatever you want.

heh. Bach just never sound good with “synth”. First time I’ve heard Miles Davis doing Bach. It’s a take, but a bit conventional. (I should stop complaining. ….ha)
