" Dane,
Although you have gotten some good advice on this already, I wanted to say "Thank You" for posting this. Other than the already-mentioned metronomic aspect of the steady click, there is plenty enough rhythmic and timbral variety to keep my…"

" Dane,I do hope you continue this! The opening is reminiscent to me of the music of Florence Price, such as "Dances in the Canebrakes", and you are right that there is a similar feel to Delius in some of the harmonic content, especially right around…"
I was quite taken with a poem posted in August by a Facebook friend. Although published in 1901, the words still seem relevant, so I wrote a choral setting, and created a lyric video/slide show to share with friends. Enjoy, and please let me know…
" I like this! I listened to it several times. Like Dane, I find the rhythms in the opening section beguilingly interesting, and the overall feeling to be joyfully seasonal. There is nice dynamic and rhythmic contrast between the different sections…"
"Saul, as always, a pleasure to listen to. I love how the piece flows along, even with the intricate lines. Nicely done!Jim "
"Vic, I love this! Such a joyful work, and I enjoy the close harmonies, and the upbeat rhythm. As someone who was only aware of classical recorder music, or recorder music for beginners, this really opened my eyes. I had no idea of the possibilities…"
"Saul, this makes me want to go spend some time out in nature! Well done, and I especially like the bird-call type sounds from the flute sort of instruments."
"Jos,
I voted for part one in the Colors contest, and I like part two even better! The instruments seem a little more co-equal in this one, and, like the first, weave together wonderfully. I like how the rhythm of the second section complements the…"

"Sean, I have listened to this multiple times, and find it to be a thoroughly enjoyable madcap romp, from the key winding that starts everything to the bubbly synth as things wind down near the end! I love how you drive the piece forward with the…"
"Gerd, it is wonderful to hear one of your works performed by professional musicians! Nothing beats real musicians, and the piece was wonderfully developed, and well performed. You have much to be proud and excited about!Jim"
"I have not yet tried my hand at the epic/trailer genre of songwriting, so I cannot provide educated feedback, but this sounds great to me! Well done!"
"Saul,
Although I like them both, I much prefer the piano version. To, me, the piano version somehow seems like the "true voice" of the piece, if that does not sound too mystical. The two versions have quite a different character, in my mind. In the…"

"Saul, I love this! Its is well written, with a beautiful and sensitive performance. I would like it even better with less reverb, but very well done!"
