Thank you for your comments about my music. My composing music is becoming better but have a long way to go tet, I can thank my grandson, Chris, for any improvements.-----Ken A>
Your music and songs are simple but great to listen too. I like to play like you when I am playing my Organ and piano Keyboard. Keep up the great work and I hope you go far with your music composing-------Ken A.
Dear Juliana, thank you so much for your opinions to my music! Partly I use EWQL, but most instruments in my compositions are from VSL Opus library. That's really powerful sound bank. Piano which I use, is Art Vista. When will you upload some new stuff? Thanks again and have a great day... btw. how did you like Prague? Will you come back someday again? :)

Wow, new photo, am I right? It is good to know how you look like... it is easier then to understand to the beauty of your compositions and paintings ;)
Take care...

I just wanted to point out that your paintings are very good indeed!
I am not much of a fan of art (personally, I am a horrible artist), but it is still part of the creative process. You are quite talented in that area as well... Thank you for providing some of your work for us the admire.
Hello Juliana! Thank you for your kind comment. I am pleased :) It is really fantastic, that you are able to find time to compose, to paint (on such a high skill) and even to listen to my works - that's what I appreciate most...:) I guess you are sensitive woman. At least your music says that... and it is fine you are not using a metronom, while recording - it's nothing you should sorry about. This is just perfect, because I can feel the humanity in it. It is not just a sound of a machine, it is more. It is filled with emotions, love and sensuality. Thank you and have a wonderful day. Tony
From the selection of composers you mentioned, I think I have an idea of the eras you enjoy. I didn't know about eras of classically styled music until recently myself. I have learned a lot here thus far. :)
If you went to google.com and typed in: 'classical eras' you would get a better understand of classical music and how it is categorized. Take care. :)
Thanks for your comment about some of the stuff I have done. i see that you too enjoy classical music? any era in particular? You too could write in that genre as i do it intuitively as well.
listening to you works now. I enjoy the serenity they seem to convey. i would like to see some more left handed work done like you have in thinking of you. you let your left hand do more than the repetitive up and down motion. it is a nice change. I used to play the exact same way when i was younger, so it is easy for me to recognize. :)
Good work thus far, I will get back and listen more of your work when I get the time. Thanks again for stopping by, don't be a stranger. Oddly enough, my niece's name is Julianna as well. I dont know if it is with one 'n' or 2 however. lol
julia, back in time... so wondrous to hear your music, for the first time...
how you always do something perfect with the strings which at first appear to accompany, but have their own voicings.. is really part of your signature....
always

Wonderful music and wonderful avatar pic. Love it.
farewell, if only this was the first 'juliana' piece i ever heard, i bring my sense of your music to each time i hear a new piece... your progressions, are sometimes 'stately', a kind of refined movement. i only wish i could watch you play it, and tell you where the music climaxes, so you would interpret your own work, less shyly. at the 1.52 bridge for example, my favorite part, but i love the opening and how you return to it,,,, there was a time that i was writing music a bit like this, so it is haunting to hear, but i stopped and went on to do what i do,,,, i didn't have the solutions your phrases beg...
although this is such an emotional piece, the intelligence in the writing is most striking....
as for the title, how 'farewell' ever came to mean goodbye is a mystery, although we do want the people who pass thru our lives to fare well, and succeed, goodbyes from the heart never happen
today, i am drawn to the joy of 'butterfly'....sometimes in music one can hear the person, the composer, as someone who could never harm, but only give....
this butterfly only need fly... so much like your music does,,,
everything is so natural in the content and balance between strings and piano, like two wings...
Dear Juliana,
thank you so much for your comment! Such a comments really make me happy and I appreciate it! And why music is not my source of income...? Well, it is hard to achieve success in my country, since there are some traditional composers, whose position in this kind of bussiness can't be threatened. It's truly rigid system in Czech republic... and every producer rather gives way to well-known composer instead of trying someone unknown.
Now I am listening to your music and it's very beautiful and expressive. Really great and strong melodies with fantastic sound. I can hear the sound of Vienna, it's fantastic...
Have a great day and thanks for contacting me!

st. peter should always be followed by regret/// thinking of you, is a given, that i will always be thinking of you, its the piano piece that if i were to ever get married, it would be the simple dance, and yes i would cry...
but the yellow flower is the color of friendship, and i am so happy our musical rendezvous has forever been made, thank you for letting me share your work...on my page
douglas
how lucky am i to hear the romantic tone of 'thinking of you' as i try to write you something meaningful
juliana, wow, so full and feminine....and you have added just the right amount of juliana to my underlying piece... no words, that express my gratitude...
...st. peter's snow is so impressive... most musical phrases don't last that long, but the opening phrase captures my attention for such an eternity..

butterfly, has the perfect of balance of strings vs. clear piano..../ i am longing for the actual violin, although, the effect with your sample couldn't be more perfect... i love the reddish purple color of your page, and now the simple bridge, this music is so happy in such a calm way... the way a butterfly might feel at first flight
