Fan Comments

Below is a list of comments from the StringTunes website. The fan comments were originally placed there. The comments are being removed shortly from that site, consequently I have transferred them here.

I personally wish to thank all of my friends, family and fans throughout the world who support me. It is from comments like these that I find the patience and incentive to keep going even when common sense says to stop.

The music business is difficult and there are many roadblocks on the way to being successful. Relying only on myself to motivate me and to keep me actively pursuing a career in music has proven to be quite challenging. Even though there are many comments here, the periodic posting from friends, family and fans lets me know that there are others out there who find real value in what I compose.   So, fan comments like these are a type of food for me to keep going. In that regards, I am forever grateful for each and every one of these fan comments.

Don you have truly arrived at the helm of music production, in realizing its scope and by releasing the notes in such a way as to be true to the classical sound

How nice to hear music that is well thought out and not the same piece rewritten in different ways. The melodies are light and memorable and range from string quartets to fully realized orchestral works. Bravo!

This music is some of the best I have ever heard. It is the type of music that allows you to relax as it takes you into a relaxed state of mind allowing you to forget about all the issues of your day to day life. Great music for a romantic evening with the one you love. Your music is a breath of fresh air in this fast paced world.

Awesome! Beautifully orchestrated! What you’ve created is what music is all about.Each masterpiece is in a class of it’s own, between the listener and the instruments. As I listened to “Waiting By The River” I visioned walking to the river as the strings started out playing and finding a spot along the river to sit and watch. As the piano came into play I could vision the water. Then I could vision being aware of my surroundings around the river utilizing all 5 senses. Amazing how listening to music like this without lyrics paints a picture. Very nice!

I’m honored for the invitation to listen to your music. It was like my own private concert! Thank you!

Good stuff. I’d say you’re almost too professional quality, and you’ve got the style down. Start organizing into albums and you should have no trouble getting a deal soon.

Heart Strings is really touching really lovely and very heartfelt just so beautiful.Melancholy is so serene with a beautiful story, it almost feels like someone is on their last breath of life or they have lost all hope, and there is a higher power trying to bear peace, hope and comfort…I can feel the struggle between one soul reaching out to the higher Spirit or God.

Just a wonderful composer,God has blessed you with an amazing gift!

Soft and soothing are the two words that come to my mind. I have such respect for someone who can put notes to paper and intertwine the gentle melodies of several instruments. Bravo to you!
