"Corridor".

Wonderful, Michael!

This sounds so exciting already after the first listen! The thematic musical structure is so Wiktorious!

Let me just go and buy a beer! I will soon be back to expand my comment while listening for the second and third time!:cool:

REALLY NICE JOB!!! For shure I will have to listen to it more than once, since it's that good... nice colors... nice themes...and it makes it even more interesting that there wasn't a STANDARD form followed.

''Innovate, don't immitate'' that'S what makes the best creations, and you did a great job!

Keep it going

Thank you very much Nick!

Thank you for taking the time to download and listen!

I'm very happy you enjoyed and could understand the form.

Thank you for your post- it really means a lot! :)

I have taken a few more listens and read the GOS part and am now confused.

Isn't GOS Garritan Orchestral Strings? I know you still use them a lot and for good reasons, but they didn't come with brass and such right? So what are the brass and winds etc?

My first opinion of the music still stands; a wonderful piece.

Very well done

Hey Ron, thanks for helping this sinking ship! :cool:

Yes, I use the GOS, but my brass are the Bigga Gigga collection and the winds are from Westgate. I bought these years ago way before GPO was around.

Thanks for the listen Ron!

Is this a joke?It's the most random melody :(, it doesn't make me feel anything because it's just random.It's just noise to my ears.It isn't a happy piece, or a sad piece etc.

Hey Shawaddywaddy,

Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment.

I appreciate it.

I need to know which melody is the one you find random so I may investigate this further.

As far as feelings; there is a large and complex spectrum between happy and sad. I believe Corridor is somewhere within this scope.

Hope this helps.

I'll defintely get back to you later.You have a good attitude and I respect that.

No problem. Music is so subjective; and many musicians are so defensive.

I write for me. And I would like to talk to you further about themes and such in Corridor if would like to.

Thanks again for your honesty; i respect that.

I really enjoy the interesting and intense atmosphere you create. It DEFINITELY sounds like an escape, and "Corridor" is a perfect title. I will definitely examine it further when a score is posted. Great job!

Wow!

Fantastic orchestration, smashing, Michael the Wiktorious! :cool:

The intro theme is very strong and Bold! I have been hearing the melody in my head even when I do other things than listening to your music!

You have improved this piece a lot.

The new version is definetely my favorite and the percussion people have a lot more to do now also!

Hi Michael,
