Shades of Winter
Written for a girl I'm falling in love with. Yes, a tad on the darker side for a serenade, but its more about the emotion to be drawn than anything else. Shades of Winter

Act.7
@Heklaphone45: The Piece is part of a string of pieces I'm writing called "The Acts." Each represent an Act in an imaginary play. Each share their own brand on the somber tone of the entire Collection. This piece, "Act.7" is the last of the collection, it serves as a sort of staff role or curtain call for the "Play."

Act.7
@paquijote: Thanks for listening, I do hope to one day be able to sit and listen to a live orchestra play my music. @ jrcramer The Piano part was removed but i accidentally uploaded the wrong score. I'm still with my ability of using Finale but I'm on my way. I believe when I am able to successfully use finale my Scoring will also get better. I'm still in the process of learning the "playable" ranges of the instruments so I do understand how I might be killing my woodwinds in this piece. The repeats I was sceptical on myself because i didn't want it to drag but I did feel as though it added to the somber atmosphere. Thanks for listening

Circus of Nostalgia
I'm relatively moderate piece, very dissonant. It's meant to be an odd piece, picture yourself literally walking into a circus where everyone seems to want to see you. You're watching the show while all is watching you. The "melody" is very constant throughout the piece, I had been aiming for that in order to try and portray that theme of being overseen constantly.

Act.7
I'm having a hard time categorizing this piece I suppose there are things that can't. I'd liked to know if anyone feels like there are any instruments that seem to be over powering the others in non-solo sections of the piece. Act.7

Pensat Variations No.2
Brock K Martin replied to Brock K Martin's topic in Incomplete Works; Writer's Block and SuggestionsThanks for the comments, im working with my mind on not "dribbling" on with melodies. I used to right pieces that tended to not have a melody at all and now i seem to force them on the listener. Give it time and my ideas will eventually bloom, but no one really wants to stand around and watch the flower grow from a seed. Thanks for listening :)

Pensat Variations No.2
Part of a long chain of musical variations based off of the same chord progression. Written for String Quintet with accompanying String Orchestra and piano. So far this has been my most involved piece in terms of modulation. Hope ya like :) Pensat Var.2 Score

Pensat Variation 1
Written for Piano and 2 Violins, I worked on this piece alongside "Piety and Woe." my recording is incomplete but partly because my computer is acting up. Hope you'll like it. Pensat Variation 1

Piety and Woe
You hit the nail on the head about how I feel regarding this piece :) The reptition was a way of portraying the recurrence of both a person's righteuos motion and also sadness, not so much pain, but more so loss and the realization of that loss. (If any of that actually makes sense.) Unfortunately repetition comes with a price, the price is a listener's ear, I'm working with ways to use melodies as extensively as I do with boring my listener into a "Bolero" coma. Thanks for the Review -Brock K. Martin-

Piety and Woe
Written for a String Quintet, accompanied by String Orchestra with a Bass Drum. This piece is incomplete and might be for some time, every time I think I've come to an end I end up tacking on more. One of the few pieces I've written that i believe is worth revealing to human ears. Self-confidence = 0 Piety and Woe

The Dawn Comes
Thanks for the review, im kinda thinking about charging the name of the piece. :) I know you shouldn't down your own piece but i kinda felt the same way in terms of i suppose closure in a sense. I couldn't figure out what it could be so i decided to post it as finished to see if it was perhaps just in my head.
