natural sound.
If I could suggest to a friend how to edit his new
movies, I would say
“Please, don’t add music. Let us enjoy the same real
sound of air and
wind that you loved when you were up there”.
In my opinion, the natural sound of air around the
glider is one of
the most fascinating sounds in the universe.
I didn’t try to download your videos yet. I shall try
this nights.
Thankyou for sharing your wonderful gliding experiences.
Happy thermals!

I agree so strongly that I will hardly look at one
anymore. I have 50years in the classical music field;
I cannot endure the current popular music, that travels
under the useless term 'Rock Music.' My own tastes
dictate that the Debussy String Quartet would best
fit soaring movies and that 'Rock' would best fit NASCAR
races, but I know from experience that not many outside
my field would agree with me.

Leave it out unless you can compose music to fit precisely
the actual movement, just like a film music composer.

Hey Nyal

Personal vote would go the way of Handel or Purcel or Telleman but there's space
for all of us.

My tastes are eclectic, but I have to say there appears to be relatively little
musical merit in much of the currently popular auditory drivel.

One bright spot - Enio Morricone and John Williams (probably others too-but
these two stand out) are introducing a new generation to some music that is not
composed by someone who died before your parents were born - that has musical
merit.
