June 25, 20187 yr It's beautiful and well balanced between the piano and cello. I think it's a bit log (for me that I'm not into this style).
July 13, 20187 yr The piece is very attractive and easy to listen to. As a previous commenter wrote, the balance between the piano and 'cello is excellent. I did not experience the (9 minute) piece as too long, at least partly because it kept moving. I should have preferred were the piece to have had more tension which could then have been resolved. It also seemed to be at only one tempo (although I might be incorrect about that), whereas some greater variation in tempo might have introduced some fresh interest. I was left wondering if you have received commissions for movie scores, and if not, why not?
