Topic: Another Jane Austen Musical video

I finished Pride and Prejudice.  It has 15 original songs.  Parts of this was hard work, the rest was a great deal of fun.
I came to think of the artificial intelligence that created the music from my lyric as a partner -- a collaborator -- every day was a new adventure.  I hope, in the end, we came up with something entertaining.

The length is a problem but I'm doing an entire book.  When you think about it, 70 minutes to do an entire novel is actually good.  I'm thinking that the troop of singers and dancers that you see on a Cunard Cruise Ship is the place for a piece like this. 

I'd love to hear what others think, good or bad. Be blunt. Let me have it straight.

Hi Paul,

I've watched about half so far. It is much better with Jane looking at me while she talks! As I said before, it would be great to see the characters, at least the singers, on stage, even if static. But is is very good and enjoyable.

And no Youtube commercials so far!

Putting it as bluntly as I can, Paul, it’s even better than the previous one, and you set a pretty high bar with that. The one thing that particularly struck me was that in their discussion just after the one-hour mark Lizzy and Lady Catherine sounded indistinguishable, but I don’t know whether the software you used offers you any control over such things.
