A concert overture I just recently finished about Snowdonia National Park, Wales (Eryri in Welsh), which I recently visited. Let me know what you think! -
The first contrapuntal piece I have written after 6 months of composing. Need some advice.

Very much a work in progress, especially the end/coda which does need some work. Stylistically its probably late romantic period. Orchestration is: Piccolo, 2 Flutes, 3 Oboes, 3 Clarinets in A, 2 Bassoons, Contrabassoon, 4 Horns in F, 3 Trumpets in Bb, 3 Trombones, Tuba, Timpani in E and G, Snare Drum, Bass Drum, Cymbals, Tam-tam, Hammer and a full strings section.

Hello everyone. I am a young composer, This is my first original composition, which wrote for symphony orchestra. Petro Melnyk - "Overture of life" Music shows how diverse life can be. Lyrical, melodic, harmonious, but also disturbing, tense. In the first part, the music constantly keeps us in suspense. Marked trombones keep the rhythm, and the different timbres of the instruments do not allow to calm down until the culmination of tension reaches its highest point and the lyrical part begins with a solo oboe which shows not everything as scary as it seems, later other timbres are connected until the string enters. a band that gives melodies fullness of sound. Permanent glissando horns also add fullness to the sound. Only at the end of the first and second parts are combined in major key. And the code, thanks to the unusual rhythm, shows that everything is much more complicated than it seems, but the work ends in major and it gives us hope for a better future. You can find other my arrangement on my chanel on YouTube. In description also you can find link to buy sheet music, or if you want to buy sheets by another method, please write to me. I will be glad if you support me with like and subscription.

This is an updated version of a concert overture I wrote in CPE style (mostly Classical Era style, with a bit of Romantic flair, and an ending that veers wildly into other territory) a few years back. I fixed a few mistakes in the score and added a better sound file. All comments and criticisms are welcome! I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for listening.

So this is the first draft of an orchestral piece I'm working on for a submission. The name is just a working title. Some trouble spots: 1. I'm not a brass player at all -thus, I don't feel comfortable writing for brass (save the solo instrument, which I'm fine on). 2. Orchestration was not my strong suit in University -at least not in terms of full orchestra. Tips on how to handle the brass choir and woodwinds would be especially helpful. I'll be updating the wind parts here in a day or two once I figure out which contrapuntal lines I want them focus on leading up to the final climax. I'm also looking at expanding the material at the very end for the full orchestra -and playing with the interval in the 1st violin (as that is the main motif of the entire work). Hope you enjoy this draft -it's probably going to be changed.

Hello guys, this is one of my latest compositions. The purpose of this piece is to be a soundtrack of the menu for a video game but I decided to include all the melodies and motiffs that will appear later and therefore decided to call it an overture. Any feedback is welcomed! I have in my mind to keep developing the piece later and make a more established Symphonic poem. (The harp part might be impossible, I wrote with the intention of fixing it later, any teaching is appreciated)

Here is a piece for orchestra that I have been writing lately.

hello everyone, this is an old piece I composed months ago, when I am free recently, I adjusted its sound effect in Cubase, hope you like it, and every commentation is welcomed. -
Hello, I just discovered the B minor Overture, Op.2 by the Dutch composer Johannes Verhulst. In my opinion, this is a very nice early romantic piece. Score: http://petrucci.mus.auth.gr/imglnks/usimg/1/18/IMSLP463684-PMLP752959-Verhulst_Overture_in_B_minor.pdf -
this is the piece I newly composed, hope everyone like it.

Hello all, This is the overture to the Brian Boru cantata I posted the rest of (so far) on Choral & Vocal. As I realise posting 40-ish minutes of music in one go is rather off-putting, especially since I'm not very active on YC myself, let's take things progressively. Further informations on the subject of the cantata itself can be found in my other post, however I doubt you'll really need any as this is purely instrumental. Any kind of comments is welcome, as this is my first major orchestral work. Cheers, Marc

This is a concert overture I came up with extremely quickly over the past week or so, based off of themes I rejected for a larger project I'm being a bit more picky about. It's mostly in the classical or early Romantic style and follows sonata form pretty closely, with a repeated exposition, a development, and an altered recapitulation. Thanks for listening!Concert Overture in Bb Major.pdfConcert Overture in Bb Major.pdfConcert Overture in Bb Major.pdfConcert Overture in Bb Major.pdf

I wrote this a few years ago and I still think it's one of my best works. I initially planned on writing a symphony, but I ran into writers block during the 2nd movement and decided to just release movement 1 as a standalone overture. (I eventually did complete a full 4-movement symphony a few months ago, but not based at all on this material, nor in the same key.)

Hello all! This is my entry for the summer competition based on a work by Shakespeare. I connected the most with his tragedy King Lear, and so I wrote a large orchestral piece about it, with various moments from the play annotated (corresponding to the music). Enjoy!

Here is a re-upload of my overture to the Battle of Trafalgar, which was also inspired by my recent trip to the United Kingdom and the sight of Trafalgar Square in London. Let me know what you think!

I think I'll just leave this right here... Very little is known of Juan Marcolini (b. 1730s, fl. 1760-70), the composer of this little gem - an overture to a zarzuela from around 1760 - and more is the pity for it. Ostensibly he was Spanish, but with a surname like Marcolini, I'd be willing to bet he or one of his ancestors was Italian. The title, "La dicha en la disgracia y la vida campestre," translates roughly "Bliss in disgrace and counry life" - which only whets my appetite for more. I learnt a thing or two listening to this piece, to say nothing of marveling at its quality, and just enjoying it. Hope y'all will get a kick out it. Here it is in a particularly tasty performance by Concerto Koln.
