Audio for Video

The below video excerpt was distributed to my class and the project was that we had to create the audio, but had to find unique ways to create the sounds.  All sounds were created with violin and voice.  The project was originally mixed in 5.1 surround sound, but has been converted to 2 channel stereo for web presentation.

The some of the audio files on the page are m4a files. To play them you will need Quicktime player installed on your computer.
