October 23, 20196 yr A peaceful piece for string orchestra. With long sustained chords and interesting harmonies. Hope you all enjoy it 🙂
November 4, 20196 yr The opening is lush and smooth, like a river flowing with sadness and memories. The harmonies around 1:20 and 1:45 are intense and intricate. Very nice! The segue into the low strings at 2:00 offers a nice reprieve from the slicing high strings. Wow, the transition to major at 3:00 is quite moving! 😥I had to close my eyes and just enjoy the moment! And the switches between dissonance and resolution up until the end are quite tasteful. Overall, another great piece! A real string orchestra would make this sound much fuller and closer to your intent, I'll bet. Great job, Samuel! Cheers, Tónskáld
December 18, 20196 yr I get a bit of rhythmic dissonance here with the desire to rest and the desire to move and sometimes it shifts between them a little too much for me; imagine a species counterpoint exercise moving between first and second back and forth... I get that kind of vibe from it at some points.
