Judgement at Heaven Gate

Author Comments

As always, give it a chance. I know my songs tend to start off slow and be long, but please try it. This peace was based after an arrival at heavens gate. The beggining is the gates opening, then it lead you through the first part, to the judgement in the middle. After approval your let on through to the end and your final place in heaven. My 7th piece. Please take time to review! Thanks!!!

Very nice.

The harmonies and everything are great, the orchestration is good. At times things can be a little cluttered. It doesn't have the tension I would expect for a piece about final judgement, until about the 3 minute mark. The little snippets of songs work together really well together, but i feel you could have broken this up and developed it into many different songs. Together, it tends to seem as though the piece lacks any overall direction or purpose. The couple chord movements at about 4:20 (haha, great number) are brilliant. Also loving the pizzicato and the xylophones.

You should take some advanced theory classes, you seem to be very good already, but some organization and direction can do a ton of good for any piece.

9/10, 5/5

I know. Im only in my sophmore year, so I havent been able to take a music thory class. And yes, I really wish i could go back and make it more of a multi movement, but I didnt want to undertake anything so grandiose untill I get more familiar with everyhting, and get more instruments lol But yes, I wish I could create something like that. Might I reccomend you listen to the symphonic movements in The Devine Comedy? Grand things they are..Inferno is so ... Dark. and the Ascension is a VERY glorious piece. check it out ^_^

Good...

But I know some of that stuff was in Classical Breeze, try not to repeat patterns. Definitely was some original stuff here, though. I'm not sure I got the imagery out of it that you were trying to convey, but I still get the theme.
Very peaceful at the end.

dontxthemusic responds:

Aucutally I tried not to repeat patterns, but its just hard with the limited music selection I had. Plus I thought it suited this song as well. The two sort of went hand in hand in my mind... I guess I should go back and sort of state that..

Ah that was good!

but...you say your a chick...your not you are a fat woman...correction:)

nevertheless your music is stunning

I hope to hear more of it.

dontxthemusic responds:

Hey there, Sorry you seem to be a shallow. Your loss. At least you like my music. You know looks arent everything . Proof is in my music. So I really dont care. But now your apologizing so its cool .lol Thanks for the review.

You have potential, brother.

I can see you DO have potential powers in composing. Keep up your good work and do more improvement, brother.

dontxthemusic responds:

I'm a Chick. LOL. XD So how about sister instead :P And thank you very much ^_^ I hope to keep improving. I just need to get the hang of doing this...

Very nice...

Sounds very nice. There are just a few things that bother me, but it's w/ newgrounds really not in any way the song.. it's that it is classified as "Classical" when it is most profoundly contemporary.

On another note.. since you are apparently in band and what not, I highly advise if you havn't, take a class called AP music theory. because it will give you really good techniques to doing certain things as in endning sections and how to make voice leading really top notch.

Keep up the good work.

dontxthemusic responds:

Well, Considering my school is a shiz hole, They currently dont offer one. Hopefully Our assitant band director is starting one next year..I only hope i can fit it in my schedule...It shall be a fight with my mom to take something else out, but Im going to try. Heck I have two more years after this year to worry about it ! haha. Thanks for the review!! I appreciate it!
Sincerely
