Under the Album description heading, I found a lot of information about the offerings of OnClassical, but little about the recordings in this album, such as the date and place of the recordings, and - the most important thing - the name of the performing artists.

OnClassical states on the album page: "You can copy, distribute, advertise and play this album as long as you: Give credit to the artist (...)"
If I use this music, I will definitely give credit to the artist, be it Chopin, or Bach, or whoever composed the piece, even though the copyright for these works has already expired.
However, I would also like to give credit to the performing artist. Unfortunately, that is not possible, because OnClassical does not mention their names on this page.

I needed a cheerful, upbeat, fresh, and energetic piece as background music for my video reportage of the annual relay race for the staff of the company I work for. And I wanted it to be an instrumental piece. Jamendo is a great collection of music, but finding the right music proves to be hard. You can't just type 'cheerful energetic' in the Search box, and expect immediate result.

I already lost hope of finding the perfect piece, and ready to settle for an "acceptable" choice, when I found this album. The Tentativo50 track was perfect for me. It is indeed cheerful, fresh, and energetic and, even as I must have heard it more than 20 times while I was editing my video, it sounded just as fresh every time. (To watch the video: Search for "Infor Global Mile Run 2008" on YouTube).

This track's secret? The artist masters his instrument, starts out with a basic, powerful melody, and sticks with it. He doesn't resort to cheap effects but keeps it simple.

I briefly listened to the other tracks, and believe they have the same quality. As making videos is my hobby, I expect to use more tracks from this artist.

 
 

Personal data

I'm Johan Lont from the Netherlands. One of my recent hobbies is to create videos which I publish on YouTube. I like to film pets and wild animals (birds, rabbits, mice, spiders, and so on) and occasionally a tourist event. I turned to jamendo.com to find music I can use in the background of my "documentary films". My musical preferences: classical music, instrumental. 2008-07-01
