"Great"
date: December 29, 2008
The buildup of intensity at the beginning is just great. The thing about it is it could go anyway. It builds up the tension, and the piece needs the melody and the key to define what that tense emotion is. With the entrance of the melody, that definition arrives, as a wistful and sad longing.
I hate to keep talking about one part, but I think that buildup of the string at the start does more than that; it adds a sense of fragility to the piece and to the emotion portrayed that really adds to the overall feeling.
You used the different instruments effectively, noting their timbres. One thing I like is when you introduct that slight happier melody (you know what I'm talking about). And it had that triplet in there that adds an effect on the theme that is trademark Winterwind lol. I love it when you do stuff like that.
What really brings this piece out, as I've said, is the fragility and poignancy of the melody and the emotion. The instrumentation is strong in that it further strengthens both these.
You did a great jarbs. Do some more lol.
