Sorry for being away so long, my computer crashed. I'm afraid I still don't understand what you ask.

I don't think I know voice leading. =/ Uhm well I don't know too much I know about the staffs to a degree some stuff about the scales and what not...The things they teach you in middle school I guess.

I don't have anything that I've started composing. I don't realy know the foundations of composing. I listen to various types of music. Classical, pop, jpop, korean, rock, mostly "band music" the kind you play when you're in middles school/ high school and soundtrack music (The stuff from Harry Potter, Pirates, Animated movies like Spirited Away , Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind) I'd like to learn theory for one I really don't know too much about it.

I love Samuel Hazo, Clifton Williams, Frank Tichelli , John Williams and Hans Zimmer. Samuel Hazo's Ride is so much fun to play. I like the way it sounds when all the instruments are put together and the parts just fall together. Clifton Williams Symphony # 3 Fiesta I believe is the name is also another one of my favorites. It's really faced paced and sounds rough at some times but I like how it goes off into something lighter and then ends hard and powerful. Tichelli's American Elegy was the first song that got me. It was dedicated to the students, and lossed loved ones of Columbine. It's just really inspiring to me. John Williams-I love all his work especially the Harry Potter films and Zimmer for the Pirates of the Caribbean and Sprit Stallion of the Crimarron Also Joe Hisaishi for his works on all of Miyazaki's movies.

I see how you managed to name it. It does seem like a nightmare. Though I don't get the parts and breaks around 2:30. The notes seem just long there.

I really liked the beginning it sounded very mysterious to me. Though like someone had mentioned before, where are the woodwinds? I hear the brass and strings but woodwinds are scarce. I think the music could maybe swell or have a stronger high point.

I agree with what DOFTS said earlier. It sounds like some parts just pop up out of no where. To me it doesn't sound smooth and connect together. It sounds a little like random parts thrown together. But Around 1:55 I kind of liked that part why I don't know ^^.

The I Love Windows was very interesting. I'd never heard it played that way. It has a really nice middle the word to describe it is vanished from my mind but very nice. Onward was very nice but the bad playing and tuning I thought, took away from it.
