Even if it was yesterday ...

The playback time should be a little faster, but for some arcane reason strange and annoying beats appear, so for now I propose this.

Very heartfelt Bianca, beautiful and a lovely thought for Mother's Day.

Just because it might be useful to you, I noticed that at measure 44 you make the soprano grow from forte, I imagine, to fortissimo but in a register where they will struggle to sing a mezzo piano. The most natural descending way leads to a diminuendo.

Anyway, I preferred listening rather than analyzing, so technically speaking I didn't focus on the performance aspects... that is where my eye really caught it

How did you create the playback?

Vocaloid for the solo voice?

I am listening now, I appreciate this work too.

Anyway (my impression) it seems to me that the speed still works well.

Well done

Thank you all for the appreciation.
@Dante
it's true, the voice there is at the limit of the register; I indicated a crescendo, without adding ff, to imply that the soprano must give it their all to overpower the rest of the voices. Obviously, they will do what they can. There are also other points where the voices might struggle a bit, but this is the most delicate one, also because it is one of the most important passages.

@Abate
Thank you for the citation in the list; at that time I was not yet part of the forum

@Piccinesco
I created the soprano playback with this: http://www.bestservice.de/en/shevannai.html.
I also have the altus, with which I have created other works and which I find even more realistic. The only problem is that it is a male register that is not very commonly used today. If only there were something similar for tenor, baritone, and bass...

Now there are solo voices from Vsl, but I still need to listen to them properly and it's not certain that they are worth what they cost.

Years ago I found a CD of particular sounds, I don't remember the title now, but it should be part of the Best Service catalog itself.

8Dio has also offered voice packages, perhaps there are soloists too; listen to the demos because 8Dio is a very realistic library.

I had seen the VSL ones, but they didn't excite me from the demo (aside from the price, even if it's true that it covers all voices) and then I don't understand how to manage (and if they are manageable or not) the various non-vocal phonemes.

For others, I didn't go into depth because I saw they are Giga [samples] and for a long time now I have been oriented towards Kontakt.

Anyway, the market is constantly evolving and I hope that soon they release something appreciable at affordable prices....
