there's another way

i'm hearing this song so much bigger & with drums, horns, & more of a chorus like "carmina burana"... hoping to have some folks collaborate to beef this up for another project but i think this recording can stand on it's own here in this form in case it never comes together with a full orchestra & live church organ.  Thank you to my sweetheart Joshua Wayne Hensley for additional vocal styling!

I don't know how a larger ensemble, etc. could improve on this.

the instrumentation may not be epic, but the song and arrangement is.  very nice.  kind of fitting for the holiday season as it has a strong "carol" feel.

It's great in its minimalism, gives it a sort of humble tone. But I can see how adding things like organs, strings and pianos can make it better.

The synth is a bit overkill though, it's a subtle as a brick through a glass window.
