My first strings-only piece. It wasn't as challenging as I thought it would be.

Please rate/review and enjoy. I know I enjoyed writing it.

"Very nice"

by: Shanus

date: September 22, 2008

Loved it. Sounded like a medley for a Disney movie. And trust me that's a compliment. It had quite a bit of a wild west feel at the start. And then sadness for the most part after that. Really good string work. Built a nice atmosphere. A very nice piece.

"brilliant"

great build up, and very well played, I thought it was going to be a sad dramatic piece by the intro, you proved me wrong though, and for some reason it reminds me of the old Disney films I watched as a kid, back when every other scene had a musical number, anyway, great work

"Good"

by: svinepels

This is nice and original but a little short. It sounds good and professionally made, but honestly I don't think I will remember the melody after listening to it - something I think is important with music. However, I can hear that it qualifies to be used as some sort of background in a video game, film etc. I give it 9 points!

Thanks for the review. I'll think about some of those things when I'm next composing.

"Good buildup"

by: Coop83

date: September 21, 2008

This piece builds up nicely into a well composed and arranged piece of classical strings.

I think that it could have been longer, as it sounds so good I didn't really want it to end after only 2 minutes, so you can surely make it up to 3 or even 4 minutes long, to really deliver the impact.

Certainly something that I can see being used for an overview of a medieval setting, as the camera pans over the castle and shows the bascis of the kingdom to one and all.

Length is something I struggled with for a while, and am still trying to overcome.
Perhaps one day I'll extend all my compositions.

Thanks for the review.

"Great job!"

by: Fro

date: September 20, 2008

I really enjoyed it man! I love stringed instruments and this one made me remember why I love them. The entire things was great, but I just wish it was longer because I didn't want it to end that soon. This would probably go great with a flash submission whether it be a movie or game. Maybe a RPG game in my opinion, which would be really cool. This is almost enough to add too my favorites, but I just don't know. It's something that I will figure out. I think this def. deserves a score around 4 or above 4 though so I voted 5 for you. Good job.
