Thank you for doing that. I liked very much the style, the drive, the feeling and of the demo track, super performance! As a (former) violinplayer I especially admire the violin performance, tone, makes the instrument sound not searching for at tone but stating things as imperatives. > > In my mind, it's that simple.

Maybe with the addition that there might be some genuine artist who got some inspiration from you and who makes a new "Mr.Toad story", which would be impossible if you had taken a patent on "stories including toads illustrated with music." Copyright is different and is intended to make it possible for artists to get bread on their table (every day). And for the public to listen to music which has been written out of sheer pleasure.
