Hello, thank you for listening. This little piece was an exercise I did in a composition course based on contemporary techniques. Later I made some modifications, really minor, especially in the pauses or prolongation of some notes or chords. I hadn't noticed that about LH..... I'll keep it in mind. -

Well, this was an arrangement of a pre-existing piece of music. It was used as a back track for the final scene in the video game Halo 3 the score was written by Martin O’Donnell and Michael Salvatori. there is a melody there, I believe that my balancing in terms of sound may be a bit off-kilter, here. In MS Studio I’m able to hear it clearly. So that may be the mistake. not to mention, I also firmly believe and have the humility to say that I probably went a bit over-board with counter melody and harmony voicing in this one 😅😅😅 Kind of drowns out the melody. When I get to my computer I can better explain it to you. But in essence, I do understand where you’re coming from, and would wholeheartedly agree with you that I need to work on focusing on the melodic lines more often. I find myself, often, even writing original scores, becoming a bit entranced by the harmonic structures of the chords in the progression, and I believe it’s because that’s what my ear takes the most pleasure in listening to. I get a little tunnel vision while structuring my chords sometimes and completely forget that the melody even exists 😅😅 it’s something I’m already actively working on trying to improve upon. thank you for the extensive feedback! And I’ll let you know if my skills take me that direction at some point. Funny enough I used to work a job where I travelled the East Coast working at Lowe’s buildings overnight, doing Corporate Reset Construction (basically tearing down the giant shelving and displays then installing new ones and setting product/labels via Planogram) My last contract location with them was Bristol TN & VA. My home location is Florence SC. -

For me, I chose - Not good at analyzing music (because I truly have struggled deeply with this skill since I started with music. I have a hard time even analyzing what it is that I’M writing at times to be clear and honest) - Not enough knowledge of existing repertoire… (Some of you guys can reference music pieces by pulling them from thin air out of your memories lol I’ve listened and attempted to analyze many scores but they always elude me in their name or artist when I need to reference it. I have ADHD so I don’t retain knowledge in terms of specifics unless it’s something I’m actively working on) - Afraid to say something that’s wrong (if it makes any sense, I can *see* what needs to be fixed but have a hard time formulating the correct sentences to *explain* it to someone unless it’s something that I’ve already made a mistake on and corrected, myself.) in addition to these, I’m also a sole proprietor business owner. I run a mobile auto repair service and my phone rings off the hook constantly. (I’m sitting in the Walmart parking lot with my phone on DND since it’s outside of my business hours and, for once, I’m not working over time today.. lol so when I get a lull I do try to participate where possible) -

Yes!!! one of the main reasons work is posted here, I think it’s safe to say, is for the purpose of feeling accomplished in the work that was done for the compositions. They take a lot of time to do, no matter the skill level or grammatical correctness of it. it always feels nice to at the bare minimum, be seen / noticed by someone, anyone! -
This is my first composition I wrote for concert band, a suite consisting of four parts that I wrote over the course of several months last year. I would really appreciate if someone could provide me with some feedback on this piece.
