  • Biography
    I starting composing at age 15, and I haven't stopped since. In 2012 I began my studies in college level Music Theory and Composition. I don't like defining the genre I write for, because i much prefer to let the music to speak for itself or to leave itup to the interpretation of the listener.

  1. You've got a nice chord progression going throughout the piece. I also like the simple melody that you have incorporated. The transition from one melody to the other is very good. The pause at the end is a little awkward. It makes me want more. I tend to be a big fan of resolved endings, but its your music. Ultimatley, you decide when the music stops and starts. Great piece you've got!
  2. I cant seem to hear it either. Darn technological Flaws! Well, hopefully they will go away soon because i would love to hear this piece. It sounds wonderful!!
  3. I absolutley love the unique phrasing! The timing works out very nicely when you were transitioning from the fast to the slow moving parts. Very well done, and i can tell you as a string player that this is a very good piece for an advanced group of players. I would really like playing it myself but of course i don't want to steal your hard work!!! Keep on posting!!
  4. To me this seems to have a more angry tone through out the entire piece rather than a sense of loss. Either way, the music is nicely written! Well done!
  5. Sorry about the double comment. I had a bit of a lag
  6. This is a job well done! I liked the beginning with the melody and the chords playing by the various instruments in the background. You have really good transitions too! Also, the story is a nice touch! Nicely done!
  7. and thank you for the compliment john but i wouldn't call myself an artist turned musician yet. this is the first piece i wrote with an actual purpose. Every other piece i wrote and posted here were spontaneous and unclear as far as a meaning is concerned.
  8. if i were capable of adding more instruments i certainly would. For now, i can only write for up to 8, and 7 were used for this. I was unaware that timapni could not play so many quarter notes at once. I apologize if that part didn't make sense, this is my first time writing for something other than strings exclusively.
  9. I say since the violin and piano duet and the cello and piano duet are in the same key from what i hear that you should combine both the violin the cello and the piano and turn the two pieces into one trio. Maybe then you'll be able to work more with what you have and be happy with the final result.
  10. Once again more changes have been made and noted for the future work i put into this piece. I've added a slower moving phrase to represent a calm in the storm. Once again, I am not quite finished as i want to add one last raging storm phrase before i declare that the piece is finished. As always any more feedback you have is greatly appreciated!

  11. For a musician of your skill, you're really good!!! The Guitar was good in the song even if the notes you played were beginner-ish, and the organ sounded fine to me (even though I'm not an organist.) I say keep posting, keep practicing, and don't be so hard on yourself! There are lots of people (like me) who can't learn 3 instruments at once AND compose. just remember that learning a new instrument is always a plus for composing and keep up the good work! I can't wait to hear more from you!
  12. the beginning of this song was great!! I really enjoyed listening to the melody and the piano in the background. You really have a good way of putting the electronic sounds in the background to make it sound interesting. Good work!!!
  13. i could definitely sense the beauty within the piece. there was also some really mysterious qualities to the piece which made it so much more interesting to listen to. I really like the contrast between the soprano singer and the organ playing.
  14. You have a really good Jazz sound going, but i only hear flute in the beginning and the end of the piece. I think the title would be more appropriate if you wrote in more flute in the middle of the song
