What am I doing back here after six months? MaestroRage has been submitting something every week and I only have two pieces to show for half a year... :p
Anyway, here they are:
"Down the River from Kievan Rus" (4 mins)
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/view.php?id=8 02217&sub=79501
This is one of the more melodic things I've ever written. I'm especially proud of the section two minutes into it, with the violin playing a beautiful melody and the harp playing very fast broken chords under it. This was actually an assignment for a certain class, so the instrumentation was fixed. Originally, it was: Violin, viola, euphonium, flamenco guitar, santur, marimba.
"The Great Royal Gallop" (2 mins)
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/view.php?id=8 02217&sub=79493
My main goal in writing this one was for it to not be boring. There's a lot of stuff packed into the short running time. Instruments: Flute, 2 Trumpets, French Horn, Trombone, Tuba, Marimba
Yes, I do like the marimba. :) Please tell me what you think! I'll review a piece of anyone who writes a review.
