The Tide Has Turned

Thanks for your comment Roman! I appreciate it a lot!

If you could hear, I have an E-flat diminished chord, which will lead straight to my new melody in B-flat Major.

As soon as I can think of it.

Thanks for commenting as always!

towards the end you mean? I'll have to see how you'll pull that off..I shall view the score..

What I meant by full is more instrumentation and harmony in areas. Right now, it feels like there are some empty areas... that's what I meant by hollow. That's the only thing I would change.

(And the metal riff was just a quirk of my imagination, lol)

Jiar- OK, I get that now. I find that rather funny since most times I am only a single section away from a full tutti. I'll take a look though.

Thanks for the continuing comments!

I have the same problem a lot of the time with my orchestral stuff. Even when everybody's in it sounds a little hollow. I don't have the score, but it seems like a lot of your parts are simply doubled. You obviously want more instruments on strong thematic material, but it's almost too focused on the melody at some spots. It might just be your recording though; it seems to be balanced a little strangely.
I love the piece though. You have some cool stuff going on.

P J- That was DEFINITELY the recording! Now that I hear that I am certain that it was the recording. I think that is what it was.

And as for the doubling, I don't really have much. I have harmonies that follow it, and the Strings and WW's are holding chords (minus the motif). By looking at the score it looks quite full, so I'm just about certain that the problem is in the recording. I SUPPOSE I could master it with Adobe...

Thanks for the comments!
