Viola Recording Session for a Ballad writer
Recording some warm viola sounds for a ballad . A regular songwriter I work with has a new song in the works and needs some live strings to bring the song to life.

Congratulations!
Wildflower that you entered has been selected as a semi-finalist in the 2021 International Songwriting Competition (ISC). We received more than 21,000 entries, and semi-finalists make up only 11% of all entries, so this is a remarkable achievement!
So delighted to hear my instrumental Violin Song ‘Wildflower’ is selected as a semifinalist.

Wildflower find a place in new playlists
Having played for a couple of recordings recently, varying from bohemian, to love song, to Latin pop, one client sent such a lovely testimonial:
‘Thank you Kristel. Your violin weaves in and out like a benevolent spirit, providing a soothing element to the song’s capricious febrility’.
Much obliged, Kevin.
A break-up song, change the world ditty and a wedding entrance tune
As the festive season starts to get underway, it was sweet to have a violin recording session today for a little kids poem about Christmas, all set to music.
Thanks to ‘It’s Classical’ for adding my new song ‘ Wildflower’ to their fine playlist. It features new classical compositions as well as re-arrangements of classical works.
Well worth a listen . Great for studying , chilling, driving or de-stressing too!

Wildflower-Contemporary Classics
Today’s recording session was a custom-written song for an upcoming wedding entrance song. I think the final recording will be very special to the bride-to-be and her dad who requested the recording.
Film shoots usually start early, so I got to see the sun rise on set this morning for a romantic scene, whilst playing some classical numbers.
I am so grateful for opportunities like this at a time when places to play are few and far between.
Think Tom Bombadil from Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings… the inspiration for today’s remote recording session, played here on Murray Kuun’s superb violin.

Another online violin session done and dusted. It is so interesting to play the varied range of compositions that come through for session work. Today’s one was a little country number about a dorpie.
