Hello Guys, I'd like to introduce my latest symphonic track, Monarch Butterflies. What do you think?

Hello, This is my brand new track, called Outer Space Flying Dutchman. Do you know the legend of the Flying Dutchman? It's a very famous myth about a ghost ship, that can never make port and doomed to sail the ocean forever. I imagined this story in outer space, and this is the result. What do you think? Write below in a comment!

Hi, everyone I would like to introduce to you my new composition. It is Ballade #2 for piano. The composition was written in late romantic style. I tried to make it in classical traditions with clear music forms and simple, understandable melodies. I hope I accessed my goals at least partially.

Nice composition. I think it would fit better in 6/8, or 6/4 (in most parts) Until measurre 58 the rhythm remains constant with tuplets. Perhaps it's too much (for me, I would expect some variation). The second part ir more erratic. I see a lot of contrary motion, which is good. This part becomes passionate.... In m. 160 it comes back to the fist part. Here it seems that the rhythm of both hands was different, not vertically parallel, which is what we heard before. I like it, too.

Понравилось. У вас весьма насыщенная и красочная фактура. А еще мне понравилась текучесть - то, с какой легкостью, и главное естественностью, вы переходите от одного тематического образования к другому. Порою бывает непросто соединить такие непохожие мотивы и ритмы во что-то единое и при этом избежать отрывочности или калейдоскопичности.

I think Nocturne fits the piece pretty well, especially as you get to Variation 1, which sounds very nocturnal. Those beginning arpeggios and the sinking bass though remind me of another piece I have heard, which also goes from slow to fast and vice versa like your piece does and just happens to be in the same key. That being Mozart's Fantasia in D minor, perhaps the closest I have heard Mozart get to Beethoven stylistically in piano solo outside of piano sonatas. Your tempo changes aren't nearly as drastic as the ones in Mozart's Fantasia in D minor, but they still remind me of that piece.

Very somber and ethereal. I wish I could play the keys so elegantly. Well done.

Wow!! I love this! You have a great way of navigating harmonically, and the build ups are very effective. The way the woodwinds flutter about really convey the flight of a butterfly! I'm flying! Thank you! :)

At first I thought you had switched to Philip Glass style but, bit by bit, you went into that post-romantic idiom....

It depends on the context and what you want. They sound coherente together.
