Hi Mr Lex. I think you had some right to be snappy. I was more concerned with the lack of human kindness & thought in a few of the responses you had to your piece. They could take a minute to settle down & think before responding from a neurotic knee jerk reaction. Once again, its most important that we keep on creating & inspiring, not dragging each other down. Keep me informed of any updates, new pieces etc. Good luck !!

Thanks for the comments, Dofts. I'm sequencing this piece again, to match the mp3 as best I can. I'll try & post the score soon. The dynamics are an issue which I've been growing more aware of. Can you give a time eg: mins - secs where the clarity is lost ? It could be due to my attempt to get a big sound to capture the power & depth of expression of the dance at certain points. The timpani hits are representative of the dancers footwork (golpe y tacon etc) combined with the french horns & Contrabass. Maybe pulling back the volume overall would help. Thanks again.

Bravo ! Great music. Thanks for sharing it with us. A huge inspiration.

Hi. Hoping for a little feedback on some of my first pieces. I have no formal musical education, so I'm hoping that any major errors will be pointed out to me, & maybe even find my musical ideas enjoyable. I haven't got the midi files or pdf's available, as I lost a lot of music recently with computer issues. Still learning my lessons (BKUP - BKUP - BKUP) ! Music page of Mark Davies - MP3 music page on SoundClick > Orchestral Farruca - which is based on a guitar arrangement I did for a show with a couple of dancers. > A Buskers Alms - which is just an idea I had in a celtic style. My harp recorded in a concrete box (spare room) mixed with EW GoldXP. > Hero Film Theme - an idea I had for orchestration based around Andalusian rhythms. Heard some great music on this forum already, & looking forward to participating when I can. Cheers !

My goodness. The daggers certainly come out quickly on this forum !! I'm not so sure I want to post anything here as a newbie. Its a valid piece of music, Lex. To my ears anyway. The inspiration to create is important. The details (as described above) can be sorted out later. Its not such a big deal.

Impressive first try ! Don't stop.
