    Chariots Of Fire is a really good piece for people to begin learning production on...
    It's beautifully simple and yet instantly emotive so it keeps you engaged.
    Nice performance here, and I agree that if you spend long enough on something you can perfect it...IF you've also got the talent and the know how 😬. That bit takes years.

    Oh man I'm crying. This is one of the first song that made me want to play the synthesizer back then. You recreated it perfectly. I didn't even know Vangelis died, he was my childhood hero 😭 I was crying from joy then saw the end now I'm crying from sadness. Back then synthesizers didn't have a good piano sound so I never recorded that one, but I have one for Eric's theme, maybe you want to do that next. Oh man I'm heartbroken 😢

      I heard this song from a YTP I watched when I was little, but now I heard it again, and I consider this one of the greatest synthesizer composition in the history of synths. I started getting interested in synthesizers last year due to Pink Floyd, and then I hear multiple works with synth usage. And it's wonderful for me being a teenager who is fascinated with complexities, and by complexities, I mean so much stuff and sound you can do with all these nooks and crannies.

    I used to play this a lot like 30+ years ago. Just had a an upright grand paino at the time, no synthesizers. My synths were about 1500 miles away at the time along with my computer gear. The only reason why I had the piano, was Ray, the owner of Ray's Music in Bremerton, WA, gave it to me. Really, first time I met him while browsing his store, I was playing Mozart on a piano there, and we started talking, and when he heard all my stuff was far away, he offered to give me a piano if I do a couple gigs with him. But after a rather bad winter storm and the place I was staying hadn't had power for a month, I decided I didn't want to be there another winter, so I gave the piano back to him and moved to where all my stuff was.

    @7:25 Vangelis actually used a Roland VP-330 for the strings pad (and choir), so the Eminent/Solina guess is not that far off.
    Vangelis did use the CS-80 for strings in the late 1970s, but when the VP-330 came out in 1979 he switched over to this instrument for the string pads in his music.

    For the pad on this song, though, I think his go-to was the Roland VP-330, as he would also layer synth voices along with strings off that one unit. You can actually hear a choral "ah" mixed in over the outro a bit, as well.
