Hello Here is another piece of the cycle "a la lune" according to Jules Laforgue. I didn't count. I must be at 4 or 5 on the same theme. Here is a kind of little song that looks like a waltz. Sweet bitter, of course, since it is lost love... Translation in the video in subtitles. Thank you for your criticism!

Very charming! I'm definitely getting a Beethoven/Brahms vibe from this movement. The modulation to D major in the exposition is unexpected, but it works! The 2nd ending/intro of the development is a little odd. I think a little more motion from the piano into bar 102 would make the transition smoother (suggestion: maybe the violin motif in 102 could be played in the piano bass line at the 2nd ending). Another minor suggestion (and this one is just a personal preference)...3 before the end, maybe have the violin play a pizzicato B-flat major chord (maybe without the piano). The violin writing is very idiomatic for the instrument. The piano writing seems fine to me...though not a pianist myself.

Hi Peter! The Nimrod theme is 10 times better than mine lol! I love that variation very much! Well I don't care whether a friend is known through real life or internet. Arjuna is definitely much closer than many people I know in real life. I won't write a piece for someone I don't treasure. Yeah I just try to for light mood and simple style here, something enjoyable and not too difficult. Honestly I quite enjoy composing this piece after the Sextet since that one takes tons of efforts. Thx for your review Peter! Henry

This is a piece for orchestra, with a prominent solo Violin part, similar to Danse Macabre. The story is a journey through tales of fairy and monsters in the woods, with the violin acting as a Puckesque narrator.

Hi @danishali903! Like this arrangement! Love the English Horn very much. Yeah especially when the horns and trumpets are playing with the mute it sounds a bit off haha. Thx for sharing! Henry

Hi @Some Guy That writes Music! I like this very much, just like you said it doesn't sound very complex, but because of that it sounds really peaceful to listen to. Love your imitations between instruments and that Lydian Bb. Even though the opening theme recurs it doesn't sound monotomous at all given how you modulate; I love your modulation to Eb major in b.25 very much. The counterpoint there sounds really nice. And of course a very nice retransition back to C major. This music almost reminds me of some very simple yet deep film/anime music, unlike those shallow film trailer music with bombarding brass and a loud climax at the end. I hope I could have doodled something this high quality like you did haha! Thx for sharing! Henry

It has that sound, but I don’t know how to describe it. I think that B flat is contributing to it. it has been nostalgic fairytale Disney sound. I heard it another music.
