June 15, 20241 yr Hey everyone! Just finished composing a piece inspired by the Titanomachy saga called 'The Fall of Chronos'. It's an epic symphony featuring a women's choir. I hope you'll like it. What's your opinion? Edited July 1, 20241 yr by olivercomposer I attached a music sheet.
June 20, 20241 yr Hi @olivercomposer, I really love the opening choral passage! It’s so fateful in C minor and occasional Ab minor. The instrumental development after it is quite epic which features your favourite brass instruments usage! I feel like the instrumental passage is rather too long. What I expect is the opening chorus to return earlier, since the modulation to G minor is rather less exciting when similar passages keep continuing. But I really love the ending choral passage!! So epic here! Thx for sharing! Henry

The G minor is pretty obvious because this is the dominant of the C minor scale.
June 22, 20241 yr Hi again @olivercomposer! This track is a very harmonically typical one for you! Very epic and grandiose! I like the variation in tempo which lends the music some variety in drive. I also like the short meter change to 5/4! That also brings rhythmic contrast. But there is also contrast created by the slower section with col legno strings! I like that you seem to be exploring different techniques in your orchestration! As the music winds down the tempo also slows down - great job! Thanks for sharing.
