I wrote this piece for a lit project. The thesis is "to be human is to desire the unattainable." The written narration is finished (as anyone in my Lit class will know), I doubt anyone would want to read to.

Orchestration: Bb Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Bb Trumpet, F Horn, Trombone, Tuba, 2 Marimba, 2 Vibraphone. All instruments are solo parts.

"ooo!"

this one is an interesting piece. i cant blam you for it being one of you favorite pieces. one of my own favorite pieces i wrote is not very popular but i like it cause its repetitive in nature, and i just made it up out of thin air and it comes straight out of my head. this has no particular set melody so it flies as where the notes please and it has a "free" feeling. i dont know what im describing except for a job well done.

Ah, this is an older one. This is my fourth oldest piece, soon to be fifth. My favorite one is currently Blatant Love Song. I still like this one, however. It's my largest ensemble that I've written for, so it's interesting to me in that regard. I wish I had made the background parts more interesting, but oh well. Thanks for the review!

not bad at all alittle repetive though
for some reason this reminds me of a highschool band i heard once. they were a private school and forsome reason all they had were like 50 synths for diffrent parts, but people didnt like that so they stuck like 1 of each instrument in french horn tuba, and others.
but i'me ranting i injoied your composition

Author's Response:

Yeah, it is a little repetitive. The repetitive sections are where there is a spoken part, but I probably could've varied the sounds a bit more.
Lol, that's weird that they would even consider using synths. One person on a part is actually quite common for a lot of smaller but advanced college and high school bands.

sounds like something straight out of Zelda, instrument samples and all.

Great informational background type stuff. Like someone explaining through time lapse how buildings are made or something to that extent. quite lovely ;]

an 8, and a 4

It'd be sweet if you'd check my own works out ;] id appreciate it.

I'm not really familiar with the music, but I don't really like the Japanese composers that much. I think most of the similarities arise from the synthesized sound. I'm using crappy Finale SoftSynth and it would sound different if actually played.

Thanks for your review!
