Thanks for listening, and for your comments.

That sound is 'Steel Wire'. I very much like it, but it is a bit wild and
difficult to tame - It never sounds quite the same twice! Later on in the piece
it seems like there is more reverb on it, but actually it hasn't changed.

I'll have another look at that stereo sweep. It was done manually from my MIDI
keyboard, and listening on headphones I think during editing I actually managed
to get it out of time with the 'instrument'.

The Choir sound is 'Soft Choir' and 'Rushes', played together but on separate
tracks and with some very slight timing and velocity differences.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
