Candlelight

Featured Replies

This is my original E minor composition composed by me. The reason the title is "candle light" is because it was composed in the dark (the lights went out during a power outage) on paper with my piano.

Candlelight

I definitely get the general ''vibe'' of a night-time composition, if that was the intention. I think the atmospheres are effective, but I would have liked to hear more continuity and unity in the piece - it seems like a few different ambiances are being thrown at us in sequence, without much of a theme or common element being present. For me, that works to the piece's disadvantage. Otherwise I have nothing against it :happy:

I'm not sure whether the low, muddy chords were intentionally so, but I think that it detracts from the overall mood of the piece. Where the arpeggios are closer in the lower octaves I would consider reworking the intervals; those minor thirds and stuff down there are technically correct but sound odd with the pedal mucking it all up. Maybe instead of min 3rds in the low register, you omit/skip those and use a 9th or 11th later in the arpeggio instead, I don't know what would work best for what you want.

I like it, though. Sounds cool :D
