Wow that soundfont sounds amazing. It reminded me of Kingdom Hearts a little bit. Nice.

I don't think that switch to G major sounds all that bad. If you're really concerned about it, you end with an F in the melody, then you could do a V - I going from F to F# on the V chord, then resolving to I again by resolving the leading tone. Otherwise, I think it's a pretty "video-game"-esque thing to do. This reminded me Banjo Kazooie for some reason, and I'm not entirely sure why. The tone is kind of the same, though maybe not everywhere in the overworld. I thought it was a bit odd that some parts of your melody were swung, and some weren't. It wasn't a major thing by any means, but I noticed it while listening. This is pretty nice stuff; well done.

Hi guys! Count me in as a judge

I first uploaded this work in mid-2012, and still rank it among my finest achievements in orchestral writing. I recall to have gotten above 58 comments on it if I'm not mistaken - but since the uploading system has been reverted to what it was long before I joined YC, I decided I would give it another try. As older members might recall, this is of course a Romantic-minded piece based on Jane Austen's novel Emma. Any feedback would be highly welcome. Thanks in advance! BTW, it seems the upload process takes pretty long, at least for the sound files. But at least it's running rather smoothly. Emma Overture, Op. 31.pdf Emma Overture, Op. 31.mp3
