I guess every composition can benefit from a good back story but the music will have its own “life” separate from it. Whilst I can appreciate the composers viewpoint in this respect, I personally I don’t pay that much attention to the story when I’m listening to the music - any story will do, or none at all.

I would be redundant of me to lavish praise on the music - such can be taken for granted.

Apropos Dorico, I’ve never seen the sense of using a DAW for composition in the context of orchestral/classical music. Dorico is absolutely the perfect tool for this.
