Fruit hunter

I feel like theme number one fits more of this style. You are choosing the second theme feels like something straight out of a video game and it sounds like more of a medieval battle theme. I see the audio effect of bass boosting certain instruments, or adding some form of distortion, especially on the horns and what sounds to be strings on the melody

I am not an orchestration expert, so everything looks very fine to me and is well orchestrated. For the cymbals parts it’s best not to choose a decrescendo on an attack since the decay is already a naturally happening phenomenon. Other than that, I like how the brasses used throughout what you have provided.

I am starting to have ideas if this is the theme, a fantasy based off past indoor percussion shows I played

I listened to anticipation and it sounds nice. Very floaty and sparse but still feeling full. Keep up the good work.

I like these ideas. Or at least some of them as that I could definitely do and feel motivated. I do have others just in case if something I wasn’t prepared got voted on and it’s probably still do things. Frankly, I prefer to do string orchestra works for things like these. But I’m open too many things.

As smooth as the rolling seas with the fog. -fruit hunter approves! I’m a serious note even with MuseScore basic sounds this sounds amazing. This is definitely a good ballad to program into a concert orchestra and we need more music like this although that I may say that the orchestra is kind of a dying art in itself hopefully in the future change will be made that academic full orchestra’s can be existing and play music by composers and just not arrangers This would sound incredibly beautiful with real instruments or even just muse sounds

This did have a hint of sweetness, which I usually expect in music that is written with the intent of love. usually when I write music with irl love blended in it’s usually more cryptic and abstract (see event horizon; coda material) this did have some end of darkness without the heavy weight of absurdity so it sort of had this impact of coming out of the darkness and revealing its light. Really nice work though good job.

Excellent pacing and nice job keeping the momentum Excellent transition to a heavy section. And nice keychange Excellent orchestration with the brass. Also, good job with the technique and articulation use within the strings. Other than that, there are some engraving problems, but those could possibly be artifacts of composition, which I am also admittedly, prone to habit. Anyways, though I’m being a little late to this excellent job and you prove that you could definitely orchestrate. The structure and waltz fits perfectly.

I love this piece. A very nice trio. If I was ever a chamber music teacher, I would recommend this to a woodwind trio who have the skills and instruments and means to do so. Anyways, this seems not too hard to be a collegiate level work, but a simple pedagogical piece of music. The school I go to does not have any chamber, music, ensembles or classes other than a few student lead performances throughout the year. It would definitely be perfect for one of those occasions and this would be a lovely applicator for practicing and or teaching staccato and different tonguing techniques.

From program notes~ Event Horizon brings many ideas up, but the idea of inevitability is one of them something that you can't control and something that is bound to happen something that just leaves you laying around vulnerable to the vast cosmos This piece of music also types in with some personal experienceas well with falling in love with a four part structure bliss , self denial, in love and the singularity. "once you enter,there's no going back" * extended technique, there is a lot of overpressuring bow control. This is to create subharmonics, which will sound an octave approximately below the fingered note*

For further context This is the last and final movement of the whole entire series. The whole entire suite took me from December 2022 to the January 2025. Which this may have took the longest, if not the betrayal or the origins. The rejection for some reason took me the least amount of time, though it was the most important movement. This is where all problems are resolved, if not further extended. Plot summary for those who need it: This final movement reflects the aftermath of deception, betrayal, and manipulation. Ross finds unexpected support as Fiona and the Girls take his side, offering moments of solidarity amidst the chaos. Aldric continues to plot, holding meetings and spreading misinformation, particularly misleading Clara, who is unrelated to the unfolding conflicts. At a gathering, Ross’s attention turns to Isolde, whose flirtations pull him into a state of confusion and emotional conflict. An interlude offers a reflective pause, followed by the sunrise—a moment of fragile hope. Tension peaks as Aldric reveals a secret, testing Ross’s courage. The Rejection Rings are mockingly forged, representing the last remnants of Aldric’s manipulative control. Ross confronts Aldric, struggling to reclaim his dignity and agency. A few days later, Aldric arranges a civil meeting with Ross, only for the portrait of Aldric to be used as a tool of public humiliation. In this final act, the dynamics of power, trust, and social perception are laid bare, closing the cycle of conflict and leaving Ross to reflect on all that has passed (important crotale to marimba playability). Since this project was divided by other projects most of the percussion parts aren't constant in variant number the first movement had for mallet parts if there are any extra remaining people, then quick mallet changes could be performed by them.

I made it a reference from the predator franchise. I never really watched a lot of the movies, but basically the main idea is that he collects the skull of his enemies as trophies.

There gonna be this one guy who’s probably treating the badges like Pokémon

Yeah, this is one of those hypothetical late night thoughts I had. Honestly, this is more of a inspirational completion thing that someone would do where they are inspired by one of the badges to write a piece of music purposefully trying to get that badge

I don’t know if this exists yet or if it’s possible that you would make it exist, but this idea is called the. “ skull collector award.” it’s for collecting all possible specialty badges from compositions. (when I mean by specialty badges, I meant the manually awarded badges that you would usually get by writing a certain piece of music that excels in something). I feel that it will be more complete with the competition awards, but that would just make it impossible due to seasonality. This award would be permanently awarded to those who completed all possible badges before any updates meaning that if someone received the badge one day and the following day added three more other badges than they would still keep the award.
