Very nice textures, and the harmonies sound very apropriate and well used. The playing is very impressive. Also, it's impossible not to like something called "Dragon Fruit Toccata"

Hello! I composed a cycle of three ponteios, which are the Brasilian version of a prelude. They are all in hommage to Camargo Guarnieri, along with my video about his life. Well, I won't say much about them, but I have thought them through quite well, so if you are interested in knowing more about what's behind each of them, feel free to ask! Feedback is always apreciated, good or bad. Thank you for listening, Cheers!

I am really, really pleased about how this piece turned out. It's difficult, but super fun to play. It's gonna be the third and llast movement of a Fruit Sonata (Durian, Buddha Hand, Dragon Fruit). I have published Durian here before, and I have not composed Buddha Hand yet. This is just a quick recording I have done tonight, I will do a better one with video soon 🙂 Let me know all your thoughts!

Hey everyone ! I'd like to share with you my first composition which is " L'étoile " ( the star in french) I hope you enjoy it 🙂 See ya J.Kaw © Julien_Kaw version_finale_etoile.mp3

Very dramatic! The structure and atmosphere seem very theatrical to me, so this could be well suited for a movie or tv score. Maybe some kind of documentary about space? That's what it sounds like to me at least. That was a very satisfying moment at 1:48! Nice job and I hope you keep posting here! Feel free to review others' music also, even if you don't feel confident about it. People like to hear feedback even if it's something simple!

Hey guys these are my opinions on losing the passion to make music:

Nice work. I like the modulation, and the development of the piece. Although the left hand keeps the pattern all the time, the right hand is very rich and the left hand is perfect as a support, in this case.

A very good, eloquent video in a chatty style. Brings up many points that should provoke thought. I personally think that if you have music in you you'll never lose the passion for it altogether. For composers there may be bad days, bad weeks, but it's always there lurking in the background. For some, composing is an innate compulsion; others are attracted to it like many are to the rock guitar. They may do well, they may give up once they realise what effort it's likely to take. With much effort anyone can become first class but it's another elusive step to become an artist. It's always good to take up an instrument even if it's a daw with an adequate means of recording or sample library but for orchestral music, playing an orchestral instrument is essential. Just practice until you're of an adequate grade. It all takes time and effort but it'll prove its worth. Along with score study, playing in the local orchestra is a great teacher! And.....always meet your deadlines. So, congrats on putting it out there, SilverWolf.

Also, If you could do one with the super locrian with a flat 7th that would be the †its!! Cuz I am literally obsessed with that scale and it would make me happy to see it explored!

Hey, welcome to the forum! This sounds very nice, and is well built! Perhaps it could benefit from beign less "loopy". I mean, there's quite enough contrast and there are some very surprising turns throughout the piece, but I believe it would be more fluid if you wrote it without looping the harmonies too much. Just a thought, it already sounds quite good. The orchestration and arrangement is very good, and helps a lot with making it sound fresh throughout. 1:47 feels veeery pleasing. Congratulations on your first piece, it's a very solid win!

Incredible.
