Living (Main Theme)

Featured Replies

This is a composition I made trying to create a main theme for a story I thought of. My goal was to made it recall emotions such as happiness or nostalgia for past days. Also, this is my first composition ever with Cakewalk by BandLab so for me it was like an experiment to learn how to use the program.  You can listen to it here. I hope you like it!

Hi @Anto21,

This is real calm and soothing music, and I like it! 

For me I particularly like those passages when the piano is taking the lead: for example the opening, 1:03 and the reprise in 2:10. I particularly love 1:03 since you are introducing blue notes there and that passage is special.

For me I am less favourable towards the introduction of the plucked string instrument in 1:20, since I feel like piano can do the job in this lovely piece. Also in 2:00 I find the augmented second Ab-B natural somewhat strange, since I feel like the style doesn't match with that. We are having some very soothing music here but sudden Indian and Middle East elements join in. Maybe the contrast is too much for me.

But overall this is lovely. Thx for sharing!

The overall job is good and you managed to capture the positive nostalgia emotions. The first part with the strings, gives me an American country feeling and the second and faster part, it's like a fast waltz. You use a lot of variations and I like that. It's like you have a lot of nostalgia emotions to tell!
