Exercise in Orchestration: Luscious

As you may have guessed from the title. I've been doing little exercises with different melodic ideas and the likes. I wrote out this little piece to convey Lusciousness.

A very beautiful piece of work. I think inspired by the late romantics.

Certainly! I've been deeply hooked on that time period lately.

Very cool, very beautiful. It's dark and sorrowful, and as Luis mentioned much in the likeness of the late romantics. 

I really like whenever someone posts a study or exercise for something. It's helping you learn and grow, and inadvertently there are loads of people who are learning from your music posted here. Do you plan to do a set of these? Are you exploring strings currently? It'd be cool for you to keep this going, with each small piece you write practicing a technique or whatever of something you feel is on the weaker side. 

Also, keep posting mate. The more you post and become involved in the community, the more feedback you're likely to receive. 

Agree with what's already said, inspired by the late romantics. Slightly reminiscent in mood (to me) of the second movement of Elgar's Symphony No. 2. Indeed a beautiful piece, the harmonic rhythm always changing but still managed to end in E minor.  It seemed less luscious than disconsolate but highly expressive all the same. A most pleasant listen.
