"I have just listened to it, and like Anne the first thing that popped out on me was that you should add the wavy lines next to the dotted half notes. Very melodious, the C major chord with the octave on it was a bit sudden though but i guess that…"

"I listened to this and thought it was very pretty, and was most impressed with a few things in this piece. When I read the first comment, I was a little surprised, but then again, there are those who only follow the rules, and cannot see beyond…"
