  1. I like this music very much. I totally agree with you. My idea of writing music "today" is an eclectic one. That is to say, there are lots of harmonic and musical languages we can use and mix. Your music is quite colorful.

  2. Thanks for the story and the music. I think I'd rather kill myself than killing and eating my dog or letting him kill me. Life after eating my own half a pet half a friend dog would be unbearable. Thats a... deep thing, I wonder how the author thought of that. No wonder it gave you the urge to write a music piece. I actually think that a bass flute could give you a good native sound. Some parts at the first movement sounded much happier than expected, I wonder why. The story you told sounds pianful and tragic, not cheerful and happy. It might be just me. Also, I think you could do a better use of the pianos low register, clusters on the lowest octaves can have a terrifing sound (that I really like btw), Could be used to describe this hunger, the false hope, and the image of the horrible man-eating spider god. Other than that... you gave me a good feel of these endless plains of ice. You used the breaks wisely to give the feeling of emptiness. Have you thought of performing that piece? *I might have got you wrong at some places. English isn't natural to me so when there's alot of text I sometimes loose focus or misunderstand what I read. *I just realized that "god" is an opposite "dog".

  3. Hello, Seni-G! Thank you for sharing this (wonderfully poetic!!) music! I love your use of motifs and how creative you are with your harmonic language. Especially in the first movement, I really admire your use of more traditional harmonies how they slip into sonorities that are more modern-sounding. I do wish however, that you exposed us to more variety in texture in the first movement. I feel like most of the piece you stick to the feel of (for lack of a better word) intruding silences and pauses preceded by short melodic phrases. Maybe you were going for this feel throughout the whole movement, but I sort-of wish I got the chance to hear you develop your motivic ideas in a different kind of texture. Texture change can also be very effective for communicating different emotions to your audience (which I read was one of your goals in this piece and I feel like you're already doing well already, with your writing as it is :) ) I also enjoy your use of the instruments to produce different colors; the arctic color palette is very effective, in my opinion. The form of the piece so far is very well crafted, and I'm so excited that you've shared this with us. Is there any chance I can get my hands on the score to look at some more and follow along with as I listen? :)
