very fascinating, the texture of the piano and the voice mingles well.

However, I noted that you directed for {A lot of rit. in piano solos (sweet) q»¡º}

I think you meant rubato, which should be just written as {Rubato in Piano Solos}



The melody for the voice, to my opinion, is nice, but has erm, a tad too many mordents, and to my rustic ears it sounds, too repetitive. yeah, thats my only peeve.

Well, Its well within the range of a high tenor. An glissando to A from E seems acceptable.

Lyrics wise, its well written too! did you write those yourself?


On the whole, good job!

Very pretty. No "mmm" on the end, unless you have a choir. Sounds funky. Well, there are ways of applying it that make it seem not-arbitrary, but right now it seems so.

Very neo-baroque in its simplicity. Why write the opening 8ths down the octave? They're making less sense there, rather than being written at sounding pitch.

You may want to rethink your phrasing in some areas, because you emphasize wierd syllables. Like in measure 22, the singer is singing "IM-mor-TAL beau-TY" which sounds off, it would be better to have "im" as a pickup to put the strong syllables on strong beats. Perhaps instead of dotted quarter-eighth in the previous measure, have quarter-eighth-eighth and put "im" on that last 8th. Just a suggestion.

i like it, but you don't need to go so crazy with the vocal runs (the quick up-and-down ornamentation). It kind of chops up the lyricism fo the line.
