An interesting piece indeed. It's alittle weird sounding, maybe discombobulating even (Not necessarily a bad thing). I'm sure it would work well in some video game context.
O by the way, what program do you use? Those instruments sound very real.

Oh the countless times I've played this so many times at weddings/gigs.Hey, don't take the scores to harshly. Its just the way you organized this mix didn't really work. It starts out with arpeggios, outlining the chords, then it goes into a big unison, then a solo, it doesn't make sense really. Oh, and the tempo was way to fast. So, consider those things. Keep it up.

A very nice first entry. Ya know it sounds like 'lost at sea' music, especially when that sandy effect sweeps by. Good stuff good stuff.

The drums give it an upbeat feeling, but the synths and chords give it a more relaxed feeling. SO I'm left with the impression that this new found power is completely under control and can be used wisely.
An interestin expression.

...but thats ok. It was nice you changed it up each time. I'm not exactly sure this is classical... but anyway. Try adding a key change or something next time. It would get it some elevation. Pretty nice otherwise.

Cheers for reviewing.
Yeah a key change would have been good.
I might try that if I remake it.

I like it. The playback equipment is even cheaper than mine, but I don't care! Still a nice melody.

This has some potential. If you worked with it some more I bet you could come up with somethin. I've never been an improvisor, so I commend you.

I like the atmopshere alot. It reminded me of Pirates of the Caribbean at first. Then in the middle reminded me of Soul Reaver. I could see it being used in the calm before the battle, letting us know of the blood shed thats about to come. What I'm trying to say is this piece can generate alot of imagery, which is always good for me. Nice work.

You may not have noticed, but the audio portal is for music. You making this crap is a disgrace, and you have no right to even submit on this site. Maybe you should go sit in the corner and wallow in your jealousy and lack of talent.

This was certainly a beautiful piece. The left hand provided great harmonies, and the right hand, seemless runs that added to the sorrowfulness of the mood.
I gave a 7 on clarity, cause sometimes the piano would sound to muddy, especially in the base. If you were playing it this way in real life, I would say 'less pedal.' Use alittle less pedal and the I think you'll find the bass notes will be able to breath much better.
I like the ending in major. The beginnings key was just a tab ambiguous, sense we didn't get the minor third for a while, then right to the 4 chord, (which is common to E-flat ;) so the ending was very nice.
This is a really good piece, keep it up.

I haven't touched a real piano actually, only my old keyboard (sadly, it sounds more like a trumpet than a piano lol). I can't play piano, this is computer generated. But I will take your advice about "less pedal", I left the pedal mark since the very begining and never bothered me, but you musicians got a very refined ear so next time I will release the pedal more often ;)
"...sense we didn't get the minor third for a while, then right to the 4 chord..."
Sounds like something good...
Despite the fact I can't understand what you're saying right now, I really like this kind of reviews because it makes me search around until I find what it means. That way, I'll understand what other people say too, and maybe I'll be capable of reviewing like you :D
Thanks for reviewing man! I seriously appreciatte it!
