Frank Paul replied to Gabriele's discussion "The Pierrot of the Minute" (Mov. 3 & 4)
"So true Jon!  While I loathe "market" analogies when it comes to the arts and creativity in general, it really is nevertheless true that the more "supply" there is, in this case music, the less unit value it will command by the "consumer".  As…"

Jon Corelis replied to Gabriele's discussion "The Pierrot of the Minute" (Mov. 3 & 4)
"The basic problem is that in music as in most other creative work today there is so much being produced that, even if most of it isn't very good, the amount that is good is still so large that it exceeds performers' and publishers' capacity to…"

First and foremost, let me thank you for your time spent listening and for all the support.
Yes, keep trying is definitely the key. Beside that, I believe another worthy approach is to carefully choose which contests to join: less is more,…"

"Hi Gabriele
Gosh, I'm sorry to hear about what a struggle it is for you to get your work the recognition and visibility it deserves. I certainly find it hard to imagine that you work "is not as good as other composers".  To my ears, this performance…"

"Hmm, you think the sung version is more effective even it doesn't come from a true opera singer?
Ok, I'll restore that version asap! Anyway it's still available as separate track here: https://vimeo.com/704587676/aba86ffeec

"Hi David,
Thank you for having listened to it.
I must admit I slightly prefer the orchestral version too. It's the way it was composed, after all. But the piano/chamber ensemble reductions are more likely to be performed
Anyway, the orchestral MIDI…"

David Owen replied to Gabriele's discussion "The Pierrot of the Minute" (Mov. 3 & 4)
"It must have been nice to get a real singer for this and congratulations but I have to say, I think I prefer your orchestral version but I can no longer find what I previously listened to and admired so much -- is that no longer available?"

"Hi Liz,
Thank you for having listened to my music.
It has been indeed a huge honor as the arias were part of a program which included works from Jessica Rudman and Roydon Tse, among others. I actually didn't see this coming.. I was losing hope.
I'm…"

"This was wonderful, Gabriele! And what a rewarding experience it must have been for you to hear an actual performance of your music! The soprano has a beautiful tone and her voice is very expressive - as is your work! I missed your MIDI demo, but…"

Gabriele replied to Emily Bond's discussion Caffeinated Piano pieces
"Hi Emily,
I listened to the entire album and I find it lovely. Tracks 2, 7 and 9 to 12 caught my attention over the others. I find your style captivating, ethereal, only apparently simple and it reminds me a bit of of Michael Nyman in "Piano…"

Gabriele replied to Raymond Jacob's discussion Two Waltzes for Jazz Combo
"Listened to both of them. Everything flows so well and the twists in the rhythmical section keep things interesting till the end. I agree with Ingo, learning that you play all the instruments left me open-mouthed!
Thank you for sharing!
Gabriele"
