"Daybreeze", my first real piano piece.

I don't know if the name really suits the song, but it popped it to my head when I was trying to come up with one.

Some of it I feel is still a bit disjointed, but I'm just happy to have some kind of finished prodcut!! I've never written an instrumental like this before where I don't improvise.

Hope you like it!

Wow I really enjoyed it, so calm and smooth. I like the from fast-paced with a lot of triplets to the more calm part. I think it would have ended with the part in the middle, just slowly fading out. A few minutes of relaxation and thought, thank you very much :)

Thanks for listening ;) I might try extending that middle part out and ending it there, and perhaps using the ending bit as the start for another song. Glad it made you relaxed :D

Could you find it in your heart to give us the sheet for it :)

The start reminded me of the Fray's piece, but then it was so much more. Good job, nice recording, wow!

Haha "Step one, you say we need to talk..." Good times, I love that song.

Thanks for the feedback :)

well done, i give kudos to you. I really enjoyed all the I-V in the begining, is the piano your main instrument?

Thanks alot :) Yes piano is my main instrument, been playing for almost 7 years now, although I play it more to accompany singing that anything else.

Very, very impressive! This is one of my favorites on this whole site, and the name you gave the song is absolutely perfect and fitting! Most impressive!

The tone of your song is wistful, yet bittersweet, I think. Bittersweet songs tend to be the most emotionally moving, so that was quite a good choice.

I enjoyed this draft quite a bit! Your first instrumental eh? Well done!

It reminds me of a movie scene or the beginning of a movie where everything is introduced.

I think maybe the beginning part is a tad too overdone. (my opinion only mind you :)) I like the break from it by going into the middle part and think is could go back into the first part easily.

Am I wrong in thinking this song has two main areas? The song just kind of died without resolution. I thought there would be yet another part based on reading the other replies. That is why I also said middle. From hearing it only once, it sounds like ABC or ABB'. There is no "wrong" way to write a song. And it is great ESPECIALLY since it is your first instrumental! I remember doing things like this when i was younger. Mine were quite awkward when compared to yours however.

Keep up the good work.
