Project Firebird!

Amazing, the music alone is wonderful but the animation from Fantasia just makes it so much better. 10/10 Merry Christmas

Small ballet-phantasmagoria on Christmas motives

I like this, I can almost imagine what it is like from the use of dissonance painting the mental image of fighting toy soldiers. Creeping around and then attacking each other, very interesting to lis…

Awake - Your Thoughts

This is a very interesting piece Conor. I agree with Adrian, modulating from g minor to maybe something else. An example would be that since g minor is the relative minor of B flat major you could mo…

Hey there. The music is beautiful, but I feel I have heard such progressions in the past...you could try to expand your ideas and melodies by using a bigger ,more developed orchestration!

I like how when the accompaniment comes in the first time I expected it to typical progression of Pachelbel's Canon in D but instead it was a very interesting progression used really nicely. The drum in this piece really adds to the theme of this pi…

I just listened to your composition. It reminds me of a lot, and like you said it inspires alot of feeling. It reminds me of the eight years that i lived in Hawai'i a very beautiful piece in deed. It would be wonderful if you could get an orchestra…

Interesting, I can really imagine the heavy traffic scene you are trying to portray. What this makes me think of was the piece rhapsody in blue by Gershwin used in the Disney musical when the little girl runs into heavy traffic after loosing her bal…

Very interesting to listen to, melodious and pleasing to hear. I especially like a quarter way through the piece where I believe the strings were doing a pizzicato. I like this piece, Merry Christmas

I have a friend who has that mix too, except Malay so i don't think it's too strange =) That's very cool.

I saw you were having one of your pieces performed! If you want to add it as music on here with Finale Notepad:

Open the file, make sure it will play through without borking up!
Go to windows Moviemaker, find "narrate timeline" and click that.
Under input: put stereo mix
hit record
hit play on finale
then hit stop on Movie maker when the song is through.

you will then be prompted to save the .wav file. You can use iTunes to convert it or windows audio converter to MP3 (Because MP3 is way better lol) and then upload it here ^___^ U can also put it on you MP3 player in this way.
