A simple sad piano piece - the title speaks for itself.
I'm not too good with piano solos so be fair.

"Well Done"

Generally speaking, this is the kind of musical tone I love the most. It is really sad without being opressively dark, but rather, as the title suggests, a romantic hopelesness. So the tone and feeling are in the right place. But I feel the previous reviewer was right about the dynamics. Unfortunately, I'm not an expert in piano works, in fact my piano skills are even worse, so I can't provide usefull input to help you improve it on a tehnical level. Still, this is a good song, and you definetly have what it takes to become even better at piano solos. So keep up the great work !

Thank you for writing a review about this track. I'm glad that you find the melody fitting for the title - and thanks for the trust that I'd be able to make better piano solos in the future:)

"Hmm"

How did you make this? Was it strictly through mouse clicking in a program or did you record it through a digital piano, record a real one, etc.? The only reason I ask is because although I like the melodies, it needs some more/better shaping. That is, dynamics, hard/soft stuff. Right now, it seems all to be at one level.

Usually you can't tell that type of stuff with piano but when it's a slow solo like this one, it becomes really important.

If you get the shaping in there, I'd really like to hear this re-uploaded. :)

Well yeah... it was made with a progrem and mouse clicking. I've tried to pay attention to the dynamics and don't let the song sound at one level... but I've wrote I'm not good with piano stuff so it didn't turned out that well.

I don't know if I'd ever make a re-arranged version. Still thanks for the review and the hints.
