Default Mahler's Adagietto mockup (MIDI and RPP included)

After the success of my LOTR mockup, I decided to tackle a new piece. I asked for suggestions and received quite a few... but finally I decided to go for what I consider the ultimate challenge for string writing mockup: the Adagietto from Mahler's 5th symphony. Every note has a specific articulation and direction and the dynamics are constantly changing.
So here is the result of my work. Even though there are much less instruments than in the LOTR video it actually took me longer to complete the piece. Reaper, once again, behaved absolutely wonderfully! Finally I also have thank to maestro Claudio Abbado (RIP) for his guidance and for the inspiration (listen to his performance with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra if you want to hear the original)!

For those interested the MIDI and RPP files are here:

Here is the YouTube link: https://youtu.be/6CE74bJ-sdk

Please comment, share and ask questions!

This is just spectacular!!!!

I was hoping to download the rpp files since I have never tried to mix classical before. But it says file not found.

Thanks for sharing this!!

Nice to see Reaticulate there.

(BTW ctrl-mousewheel will adjust the zoom level of the UI if you find it's a bit oversized relative to the rest of Reaper.)

With that out of the way, extremely lovely and musical mockup here, Bernard. Very nicely done.

Thank you Tack, my work would be much more difficult without Reaticulate (and my Lemur template that works with it)! Obviously it didn't get much use on this piece, but on my LOTR mockup you can see articulations constantly changing. I can't even imagine what I would do without your work. By the way, do you have a donate button somewhere?

And thanks for the tip, I didn't notice it before!
