  1. Is this piece meant to be short? There no indication of dynamics in the score. Same problem with Handel's Messiah. (Should we begin loud or soft?) Please watch out for flutes in low register (Bar 1 - 4). They will be easily covered. Bar 15: Watch out for the notes played by Trombones. Maybe too fast for them to be played, may have to check their positions. Otherwise possible, the notes may not be cleanly executed. Last Bar: Bass Trombone playing a note higher than the Trombone 1,2? Reason? Does it make it sound different? Do you need your Tuba to play such a high note? Rational? Since, I assume that you have just started a piece, perhaps you could try sketching out the rest of the music, how you intend the piece to be, then aim to create variety in your orchestration. It is still too early to see your potential based on these few bars. Happy composing.
  2. Very beautiful. Almost sublime.
  3. It was enjoyable. You probably can consider harmonics for the high notes. You have a lot of ideas but I agree with the comment about better organisation (Structure). Maybe I can say it in this way, you have some good content here, but you need to package it better. Thank you for sharing.
  4. I believe it is the Queen Elizabeth Competition?
  5. I can visualise how it will sound on the pipa. I presume that all the chords are played as arpeggio? Asssuming that comprehensive research was done on the instrument and that all the notes are technically playable, this piece does sound like the pipa playing technique. I think you have something good / interesting here.
  6. Hi there... I did not find anything seriously wrong about the score but similar, I did not find anything seriously interesting about this piece. While perhaps understanding the deeper meaning of the words, Shamatha, Vipashyana, Samadhi and Dhyanas would lead to better appreciation, the music wasn't inspiring enough to motivate me to find out more about them. Sorry, honest feedback.

    I hear some parts of? Mozart?...yeah. If you upload your score next time, then I would be able to comment more. It's very enjoyable.

    I like the 2nd one more but the first one is more interesting.
  9. Okay I like this piece. I had an enjoyable time listening to it.
  10. I agree with the comments made. This piece ended longer than it should be. Need better organisation and it would certain be much better.
  11. Hi there, recently I have read the book titled Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain. It has one chapter which discuss about people who have gained Musical Talent when they are older and a chapter about Music Talent. I thought perhaps if you get to read this book, you would be a step closer to the answer.
  12. No. Not those bass fifths.
  13. Hey nice music but oh...oh, some parallel fives :P
  14. I think it was rather pleasant to listen to. I can't read the score. PDF would be helpful. If you could upload a pdf score, I could comment more.
  15. Wonder if you could disclose the score? I would like to know more about the calculations done behind it. :)
