Skyward Ascent || Peaceful Violin Piano Music || Remastered

Hi there! I think this music is pleasant, however it feels incomplete to me. What I'm hearing for the first minute and a half is essentially a four chord progression that repeats on loop. This progression sounds like a part of a song, but not a complete song. I recommend trying to push your compositional envelope a bit more. Expand your initial progression so that it feels more like a complete piece. No matter how many ornaments or percussion samples you add, the progression gets old when it's just playing the same chords on loop for over a minute. Try some new directions so that the progression starts to have different parts (for example: verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge).

Around 1:40 the music starts to get more interesting as you explore new chords. This was by far my favorite part. This felt like you were freeing yourself up a bit to explore, which is where the music starts to feel more like "art". I also like the note you end the piece on. You've got good instincts! Go explore more. Try to write a piece that is fundamentally interesting on a harmonic and melodic level before you start adding in percussions loops and other wing-dings. Simply adding a second progression early on in the piece will do a lot to making this music more interesting.

Thanks for listening and taking your time to give feedback man, really appreciate that!

What I'm gathering is that I should experiment and play with the chords earlier on in the piece? Then later on, I should continue to switch up my chord progressions instead of looping them? So, maybe do the exploration I did at 1:40 at around 0:50 (1/4 point of the song)?

Finally, thanks for the compliments, I appreciate it!
