I really like this song, but I feel like some of the elements were brought in too soon, rather than slowly progressed throughout the song.
In the beginning, I think some strings around 0:28 would add a nice touch to the piano. Then battle drums softly rumbling in the background would give a nice triumphant feel to it around 0:58. As the drums get louder at 1:36, the ...trumpets(?) could come in, and follow the melody of the piano, and eventually fade away again along with the strings, so at 2:50 all that's playing is the piano and the battle drums, and the piano fades away, leaving the battle drums rolling in the distance, as if soldiers were walking away from a war in victory.
Don't get me wrong, I really like this piece, and it sounds amazing, but I just feel as if the timing for some of the instruments were a little misplaced. Either way, I hope you know I admire your work, and I will continue to enjoy listening to your music.
Kudos!
