"Beauty thy name is "The Composer""
date: November 23, 2009
This is one of my all time favorite animations, and perhaps the only one of its kind. Were I more gifted with words I would be able to express my fondness for this piece of art in a more proper way. This animation sends shivers down my spine as I follow this young boy on his journey through life, lifting me up and breaking me down with his music.
The piano is an instrument of extreme passion and my favorite to hear played. The music in this animation is more express-full and more meaningful than most would care to recognize. The story is one that should be made into a full fledged film, but is perhaps more beautiful as a humble animation. Taking the composer full circle is brilliant and symbolic beyond measure. Your animation humbles those that come close to its level of beauty and puts to shame the shallow slapstick animations of the newer generation.
"The Composer" will always remain in the pantheon of Newgrounds animations, and continue to inspire future animators for years to come. It is a crying shame that beauty of this magnitude is lost amongst the youth of my generation. I pray that you will continue to make more animations with such beauty and passion as the "The Composer". Your work truly inspires and I hope that your message will never be lost.
You have amazing talent, never let anyone tell you otherwise. Your work is on a level all its own. Continue to animate and inspire those who otherwise would lose your message. I look forward to seeing more of your work and writing more reviews for them with just as much praise. You've set the bar for animators everywhere, now go place it higher!
