Is that Midi?

lol I hear midi in there! Any who, nice composition! I like the part in the middle. but I just dislike the fact that the piano sounds fake :p. Mind if we collaborate?

MJTTOMB responds:

That is midi. Someone has a good ear.

We can certainly collab sometime. PM me anytime if you've got any ideas.

I'll probably PM you, since you may not come back to read this.

Good Classical Music

Overall I like this. I would like to see a little less repition in parts and possibly make it longer, but i think it's a great start.

MJTTOMB responds:

All taken into consideration, all going into the remix.

Thanks for the suggestions and the review.

Is this original?

If so, nice work, just try to make some sort of change in the middle, like it has a retardando and then builds back up... or possibly a huge Creshendo. I liked it, but it did tend to get a bit repetitive. The only thing that bothered me was the ending. It was so abrupt and I didn't like that chord that you used.

MJTTOMB responds:

Yeah, I ended it in a hurry. And yes, it's quite original. As for the chord, I was just trying to get back to the home key without having to think about it.

One of the better songs on NG

Certainly very good, but something felt a little bit off about it. A lot of times it felt like there were themes being explored that just sort of dead-ended. For example, at 57 seconds in a few notes were brought in on the high scale, and this is perhaps the best part of the song. But the shift doesn't really go anywhere. It offers an intriguing change in the melody, but just returning back to the main theme doesn't seem to do the song justice.

Also the form seemed to be somewhat lacking. A nice change would have been some imitative counterpoint and a more diverse range of harmonies. Also a long term shift in the structure of the theme would have been nice.

But alas I'm not a music student, so I can't really give a perfect expression of my ideas, but the piece is fantastic nonetheless.

Great Job.

Thanks, I appreciate any and all suggestions.
