Andrew Hodges, the guiding light behind the Cloud Ensemble has a creative philosophy based on the notion of 'Music For All'. This means that we in The Cloud have a diverse, non-elitist, inclusive approach to music-making. This informs all our musical decisions.
Based on the classical string quartet, the Cloud Ensemble is a small group of amateur musicians who perform music designed for a much broader, more inclusive audience than is normally the case.
Employing the string quartet as our starting point, we add other instruments in a variety of combinations; a solo soprano, a solo guitarist, a solo violinist or a french horn. Additionally our byline is "real and virtual' which means that we, in a very creative sense, fully embrace present-day culture & its technology.
Andrew recomposes, rearranges and creates our music in a classical style in such a way as to appeal to the many different types of people who are now becoming much more attracted to the classical 'style' of music.

Just gorgeous, you did quite a wonderful job with this
Thank you very much for your kind words.
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
This is a really amazing piece you composed. I love it.
Thank you. That's really kind of you.
This is neat. Do you think you could do the Pippi Longstocking theme from the Swedish television series from the late 1960s-early 1970s, and/or, the theme from the 1997 Nelvana animated series?
I'll check these out. Thanks.
i instantly thought of JSAB 😭😭
