June 16, 201016 yr A piano piece in three movements with a gypsy influence.If anyone with a good piano knowledge happens to listen to this and finds that I've written something physically impossible, I would love for that to be brought to my attention. :)Quentions/Comments are always welcome!

June 16, 201016 yr Very dramatic piece; the opening reminds me of the piano concertos of the Romantic period. I love the sonorous chords here. There are nice contrasts between quiet (sparse) and loud (dense) sections that allow me to enjoy each in comparison to another. Overall form, however, I found slightly less easy to grasp, and I wonder if its shape could be improved by further delineating and constrasting certain larger segments of the music. I think it is that I recognize the repetition of smaller segments of the piece but have a harder time sensing a larger arc that I believe exists. For example, I noticed that much of the accompaniment consists of block chords or an alternating set of notes; one way to make larger groupings of materials might be to introduce more arpeggiation in one grouping than the others. (But then, I also wonder if this might be contrary to the style you wish to convey...) Change of keys might be another method, especially in a piece as extended as this. This is an impressive piece! I really enjoyed listening to it.
June 16, 201016 yr A score would help us in determining what is possible or not... I did like the mood of the piece. Was pretty fun to listen to, although the themes and material jumps around a bit and is a tad hard to follow. The return of the opening theme I found satisfying. I found it to be enjoyable hones:
December 8, 201015 yr A very interesting composition there's modern harmony in it but at the same time melodic line and the use of dissonances adds a specific keenness to the way it sounds and brings me to some fairy-tale country) in general, i listened to it at a breath. the stratification of the chords gives the whole piece a very modern sounding. Nice.
December 8, 201015 yr the piece is interesting for the use of certain Arab and stairs to the liveliness of the piece, perhaps there is something repetitive
