April 25, 201114 yr This is probably my favorite piece. The name is pretty self-explanatory. It's written for wind quintet, and ironically after I wrote this, we were hit with a major storm and EF4 tornado... weird.It starts with happy drops falling to the Earth. Soon, Thunder and lightening strike. After the storm, the birds sing a melody as the freshly fallen rain drips from the trees. April Shower
April 26, 201114 yr I really enjoyed this piece =) I loved the thematic variation. It made for quite a journey through a stormy spring day. If I were to make any suggestions, I would say change up the end a little bit. It sounds like the exact same as the beginning; you could add a little variation in the melody and/or switch up the instruments and melodic lines. Also, the flute pretty happy morning song part was cool, but I think it could use a little more than DOdo, DOdo, DOdo, trilllilililill. I dunno. Seemed a little dull after a while. But of course, you don't have to change anything :) These are just my opinions. It's already good as it is :) Nice work! Cheers, Keegan
