As an appendix to my recent post in the main Notion forum, where I discuss the quality of different woodwind libraries when it comes to convincing playback of rapid passagework, I paste the link to a flute quartet in four movements. Comments and suggestions on how to use and tweak the sound of flute samples are welcome,

http://youtu.be/nj1hboCcr9w "Wind"
The quartet is tentatively named "Four Weathers for Four Flutes". I know that the phrase "Four Weathers" is not very idiomatic, but to my ears it comes close to having a somewhat poetic quality. Am I wrong? Advices from native English speakers (or others) are welcome.
BTW, I know from experience that playing flute quartets in the real world is a tricky business. It requires four players with sharp ears, excellent embouchure and perfect instruments. But still, I love the flute and like to use it in various settings!
Best,
Otto

Nice!
How do you capture the score playback to video?

Thanks!
I use Screenflow, which is Mac only. I use both Windows and Mac, though, but so far I haven't found a capturing tool for Windows that captures the audio as well.

You're right that the noun "weather" isn't typically used in this way in English, distinquishing one "weather" from another. But in this case I think it's very apt. I can't think of another word that would be better.
