I have also recently made significant improvements to my DAW - notably upgrading to Cubase 11 Pro and incorporating a number of new sample libraries and VST's from Native-Instruments (Kontakt), Spitfire Audio, 8Dio, Synthogy, SoundIron, Waves Factory, iZotope, Valhalla, SoundTheory and ReLab Development.
One of the projects 2021 release of Conversations from Young Voices Toronto. It is a "multi-track remote-studio virtual-instrument childrens'-choir " album. It is now available on all major streaming platforms.
I have also just released an album of solo piano music, primarily from film scores. It's intent is to explore a new boundary of rubato and tempo variation within a much smaller area of constraint than is popular fare on YouTube channels. Something to think about!
My second album of solo piano music is also now online. It features 15 dance movements composed exclusively by women composers, both past and present. These are all gems worth investigating to add to your portfolios.
