    I think one of the things that’s always been special about this band is their deeper understanding of instruments. The prominent bass and crisp percussive sound of so many of their songs is what drew a lot of us to their sound. That’s why it’s a dream come true to see their music realized with a full orchestra

    this is so beautiful, starts like a marching band song and then just creates this enormous show of something so small, somehow making it work. that 20's -ish twist adds so much more and highlights a whole new story from the same song, it's like magic.

    I feel like I have never fully felt this song like you do singing it. It is one of my favorite songs to sing but I am always held back with emotion. About 3:13 when you really flow into the high note. The feeling of it. I am always too emotional or in a situation where I am trying not to be loud that I don't get to express that high of the song. Really Thank you. All of your work is beautiful, These orchestra versions are just some of my favorite music without question. Some of the most beautiful work I have ever herd. Agni Parthene remains my favorite piece of music but God bless you all, all of your work has helped me be a light despite hard times.
