Thanks, it still sounds weird to me as it is missing the other parts. So it seems like a conversation where you only hear one part of...

The lighter instrument was the viola d'amore that I recorded on. It has a different evolution history compared to the Baroque Violin that sits next to it. Which means internally it is structurally different and also differences in the external part. The sound holes (which are traditionally this shape) are thought to be either flames of love (hinting at the d'amore part of the name) or Eastern sword shapes (hinting at the middle eastern origins of the instrument).

But happy you enjoyed it!
